Beschreibung

This Festschrift volume is published in honor of William W. McCune, an accomplished computer scientist who was a fantastic system builder and software engineer. It includes 13 papers that cover automated reasoning and its applications to mathematics.

This Festschrift volume is published in memory of William W. McCune who passed away in 2011. William W. McCune was an accomplished computer scientist all around but especially a fantastic system builder and software engineer.
The volume includes 13 full papers, which are presenting research in all aspects of automated reasoning and its applications to mathematics. These papers have been thoroughly reviewed and selected out of 15 submissions received in response to the call for paper issued in September 2011. The topics covered are: strategies, indexing, superposition-based theorem proving, model building, application of automated reasoning to mathematics, as well as to program verification, data mining, and computer formalized mathematics.

Published in memory of William (Bill) W McCune, one of the founders of practical theorem proving and model building

Includes personal recollections of Bill McCune by his colleagues

Up-to-date results in automated reasoning
