Marktoberdorf Summer School 97
" C o m p u t a t i o n a l L o g i c "
from July 29 to August 10, 1997
An Advanced Study Institute
of the NATO Science Committee
and the Institut fuer Informatik, Technische Universitaet Muenchen
Directors: M. Broy, W. Brauer, R. L. Constable, H. Schwichtenberg,
S. S. Wainer
Secretary: R. Steinbrueggen,
The "Marktoberdorf Summer School" is a two weeks' course for young
computer scientists and mathematicians working in the field of formal
systems development. The course aims at the dissemination of advanced
scientific knowledge and the promotion of international contacts among
scientists.
Recent developments in computer science clearly show the necessity of
a better theoretical foundation of central issues. Methods and results
from mathematical logic are of great help and will be used to a much
greater extent than is presently the case. This holds in particular
for proof theory, which from its very beginning had to deal with
deduction mechanisms and their analysis. Also model theory has
important benefits for applied subjects, e.g. by providing a sound
semantical foundation, or in the context of algebraic specification.
The 1997 Summer School at Marktoberdorf, a small town 100 km southwest
of Munich, will deliver a comprehensive spectrum of lectures on the
major topics in the area.
LECTURES
D. Scott: A Theory of Domains
J.-Y. Girard: Linear Logic and Denotational Semantics
