Isso é certamente de interesse da Lista dos Lógicos. É quase um relato bíblico: "begat", termo meio em desuso, no sentido de "engendrar".
Nossa vingança contra excesso de fé em Machine Learning e Big Data? Abs Walter ---------- To mark its relaunch the VvL (Dutch Association for Logic and Philosophy of Exact Sciences) has the privilege to announce its first outreach event in 2021. It will take place on *Friday 28 May 2021*. We are very pleased to announce that Professor Moshe Y. Vardi (Rice University) will give a public lecture entitled "And Logic Begat Computer Science" (see the abstract below). The event will take place online using Zoom. The talk will be followed first by a short session where invited commentators will react to it, and later by a general Q & A session with the audience. The outreach event will be concluded by a social gathering on the virtual platform Gather.Town. Registration is free, but necessary to receive links to Zoom and Gather.Town.

Vardi Rice University Abstract: During the past fifty years there has been extensive, continuous, and growing interaction between logic and computer science. In fact, logic has been called "the calculus of 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. Indeed, logic plays an important role in areas of computer science as disparate as architecture (logic gates), software engineering (specification and verification), programming languages (semantics, logic programming), databases (relational algebra and SQL), artificial intelligence (automated theorem proving), algorithms (complexity and expressiveness), and theory of computation (general notions of computability). This non-technical talk will provide an overview of the unusual effectiveness of logic in computer science by surveying the history of logic in computer science, going back all the way to Aristotle and Euclid, and showing how logic actually gave rise to computer science. -- Você está recebendo esta mensagem porque se inscreveu no grupo "LOGICA-L" dos Grupos do Google.
