Fields of Logic and Computation Essays Dedicated to Yuri Gurevich on the Occasion of His 70th Birthday / edited by Andreas Blass, Nachum Dershowitz, Wolfgang Reisig.

Yuri Gurevich has played a major role in the discovery and development of - plications of mathematical logic to theoretical and practical computer science. His interests have spanned a broad spectrum of subjects, including decision p- cedures, the monadic theory of order, abstract state machines, fo...
