Logic and Theory
Interests include:
- logic programming, and its recent extension, constraint logic programming (CLP)
- CLP semantics, implementation and applications
- in particular, a joint project with Melbourne University is devoted to developing a second generation CLP language, HAL
- visual language theory, that is to say the theory of languages with two dimensional syntax, such as mathematical equations or state transition diagrams, both theory and applications are investigated
- algorithms and computational complexity
- optimisation
- theory of inductive inference
- extracting (correct) programs from mathematical proofs
This group has connexions with logicians and computer scientists in the
department of Mathematics and the Gippsland School of Computing and
Information Technology.
