Many-sorted logic — can reflect formally our intention, not to handle the universe as a homogeneous collection of objects, but to partition it in a way that is similar to types in typeful programming. Both functional and assertive parts of speech in the language of… … Wikipedia
many-sorted logic — A logic in which the variables range over different domains. In classical predicate calculus a proposition like ‘All Fs are G’ is represented as saying: take anything; if it is F, it is G. In a many sorted logic the representation will be: take… … Philosophy dictionary

Logic simulation — is the use of a computer program to simulate the operation of a digital circuit. Logic simulation is the primary tool used for verifying the logical correctness of a hardware design. In many cases logic simulation is the first activity performed… … Wikipedia
First-order logic — is a formal logical system used in mathematics, philosophy, linguistics, and computer science. It goes by many names, including: first order predicate calculus, the lower predicate calculus, quantification theory, and predicate logic (a less… … Wikipedia
Structure (mathematical logic) — In universal algebra and in model theory, a structure consists of a set along with a collection of finitary operations and relations which are defined on it. Universal algebra studies structures that generalize the algebraic structures such as… … Wikipedia
Interpretation (logic) — An interpretation is an assignment of meaning to the symbols of a formal language. Many formal languages used in mathematics, logic, and theoretical computer science are defined in solely syntactic terms, and as such do not have any meaning until … Wikipedia
Signature (logic) — In logic, especially mathematical logic, a signature lists and describes the non logical symbols of a formal language. In universal algebra, a signature lists the operations that characterize an algebraic structure. In model theory, signatures… … Wikipedia
Higher-order logic — In mathematics, higher order logic is distinguished from first order logic in a number of ways.One of these is the type of variables appearing in quantifications; in first order logic, roughly speaking, it is forbidden to quantify over predicates … Wikipedia
