| Aims |
|
The aims of the course is the presentation of logic foundations for computer science: propositional and predicate calculus, boolean algebra and boolean functions. The connection with logic programming and logical circuits is presented. Additionally, the codes of information representation are introduced.

1. The propositional and predicate calculus, from algebric point of view and as deductive systems. Normal forms. Decidability problem in predicate calculus: direct and by refutation methods of theorem proving( Herbrand method, resolution method).
2. Boolean algebra, boolean functions and applications. Canonic and maximal moonoms. Simplification of boolean functions by Veitch, Mc. Quine and Moisil methods. Boolean equations. 3. Combinational and sequential circuits. 4. Systems of numeration, conversions. The direct, inverse, and complementary codes. Theorems of addition. Representation of numeric information. |
