In Logical Frameworks, Huet and Plotkin gathered contributions from the first International Workshop on Logical Frameworks. This volume has grown from the second workshop, and as before the contributions are of the highest calibre. Four main themes are covered: the general problem of representing formal systems in logical frameworks, basic algorithms of general use in proof assistants, logical issues, and large-scale experiments with proof assistants. Any mathematician or computer scientist whose research interests lie in the development of the interplay between logic and software engineering will not be able to do without this book.
- Follow up to Logical Frameworks
- State of the art contributions

"The research of logical frameworks probably has a long future ahead, and the reviewed volume provides truthful information about the first steps into this wide field." Journal of Symbolic Logic
