Automated Deduction - CADE-21 -

. .

Résumé :
A veritable one-stop-shop for anyone looking to get up to speed on what is going down in the field of automated deduction right now. This book contains the refereed proceedings of the 21st International Conference on Automated Deduction, CADE-21, held in Bremen, Germany, in July 2007. The 28 revised full papers and 6 system descriptions presented were selected from 64 submissions. All current aspects of automated deduction are addressed, ranging from theoretical and methodological issues to presentation and evaluation of theorem provers and logical reasoning systems.
