Logic in Computer Science
During the past thirty years there has been extensive interaction between logic and computer science. The argument is that logic plays a fundamental role in computer science, similar to that played by calculus in the physical sciences and traditional engineering disciplines. Moshe VardiÕs non-technical discussion will provide an overview of the unusual effectiveness of logic in computer science by surveying its history, dating back to the time of Aristotle and Euclid, and showing how logic actually gave rise to computer science.
