This represents a major step toward using LCF as a practical program verification system. Newey in his thesis used LCF to prove the partial correctness of the LISP 1.5 interpreter and began a project to prove the correctness of a LISP compiler (called LCOMO). This compiler is actually more than a toy in that it is used in the LISP course here at Stanford. This thesis as a whole represented a kind of case study which demonstrated our ability to check the correctness large LISP programs. Automatic Deduction - David Luckham, et al A successful new automatic programming system accepts descriptions of library routines, " programming methods, and program specifications in a high level semantic definition language?. It returns programs written in a subset of ALGOL that satisfy the given specifications. Experimental applications include computing arithmetical functions and planning robot strategies. Another system works with algorithms expressed in a higher-level language and automatically chooses an efficient representation for the data structure. It then produces a program that uses this representation. Representations considered include certain kinds of linked-lists, binary trees, and hash tables. Program Understanding Systems - Cordell et al The EXAMPLE program that infers recursive list-processing functions from example input- output pairs was completed during 1974. This system demonstrates the possibility of using fairly natural methods uf program specification. The PUP system was our first to show a rudimentary "program understanding" behavior. By following a simple chain of reasoning, it can synthesize a few short programs, such as interchange of elements, three-element sort, and integer square root. A system was completed which, given a program expressed in terms of high-level information structures such as sets, ordered sets, and relations, automatically chooses efficient implementation- " level representations and produces an equivalent program that uses these representations. Green, A very comprehensive dialog was completed which exhibits a knowledge base of rules for the » synthesis of sorting programs. Although not all the necessary synthesis rules have been codified, it is reasonably dear how to do so. This work is aimed at the deepest understanding of a simple program synthesis yet attempted. Work was completed on a pilot system that interactively synthesizes what is essentially Winston's concept formation program. This system points toward the feasibility of systems for writing long, domain-specific programs. Natural Language Understanding - Terry Winograd, et al A system was completed that links natural language understanding, inference, and generation of natural language output. This is the first such system with a strong theoretical basis, namely conceptual dependency. Work was begun on a knowledge representation language for natural language systems which combines the advantages of procedural and declarative formalisms. It will be developed over the next three years as the basis for several understander projects. Hand-eye Research - Tom Binford, Lynn Quam, et al We have used near and far field stereo vision and motion parallax to locate objects spatially and to automatically generate contour maps. We completed design of a manipulation system AL, which combines a control language with a planning system to aid in extended tasks such as assembly. AL has new features such as: ALGOL-like control; interrupts and control monitors; simultaneous coordinted motion of two or more arms; and a planning system. The implementation is well underway. The planning system includes a subsystem for keeping track of the locus of parts, translating semantic constraints into " mathematical constraints. We completed assembly of a hinge using two arms in coordinated non-simultaneous motion. We have carried out two subassemblies of a two stroke gasoline engine. We have completed some modules of a visual system to be used for control of assembly. The system has facilities fqr, manual generation of 2D symbolic models, matching of curves in an image with those of the model. The system has the facility for using 3D models, as in CAD, predicting symbolic 2D models from 3D. We have also completed recognition of complex objects such as a doll and a toy horse using the spine-cross section representation. The system forms its own models, and matches in a way suitable for a large visual memory, by making summary descriptions which it uses to find a subclass of models similar to the test object. Training During the last year, eleven members of our staff published Ph.D. dissertations and another 32 graduate students received direct support.

  • The Computational Attitude in Music Theory
    The Computational Attitude in Music Theory Eamonn Bell Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2019 © 2019 Eamonn Bell All rights reserved ABSTRACT The Computational Attitude in Music Theory Eamonn Bell Music studies’s turn to computation during the twentieth century has engendered particular habits of thought about music, habits that remain in operation long after the music scholar has stepped away from the computer. The computational attitude is a way of thinking about music that is learned at the computer but can be applied away from it. It may be manifest in actual computer use, or in invocations of computationalism, a theory of mind whose influence on twentieth-century music theory is palpable. It may also be manifest in more informal discussions about music, which make liberal use of computational metaphors. In Chapter 1, I describe this attitude, the stakes for considering the computer as one of its instruments, and the kinds of historical sources and methodologies we might draw on to chart its ascendance. The remainder of this dissertation considers distinct and varied cases from the mid-twentieth century in which computers or computationalist musical ideas were used to pursue new musical objects, to quantify and classify musical scores as data, and to instantiate a generally music-structuralist mode of analysis. I present an account of the decades-long effort to prepare an exhaustive and accurate catalog of the all-interval twelve-tone series (Chapter 2). This problem was first posed in the 1920s but was not solved until 1959, when the composer Hanns Jelinek collaborated with the computer engineer Heinz Zemanek to jointly develop and run a computer program.

  • Origins of the American Association for Artificial Intelligence
    AI Magazine Volume 26 Number 4 (2006)(2005) (© AAAI) 25th Anniversary Issue The Origins of the American Association for Artificial Intelligence (AAAI) Raj Reddy ■ This article provides a historical background on how AAAI came into existence. It provides a ratio- nale for why we needed our own society. It pro- vides a list of the founding members of the com- munity that came together to establish AAAI. Starting a new society comes with a whole range of issues and problems: What will it be called? How will it be financed? Who will run the society? What kind of activities will it engage in? and so on. This article provides a brief description of the consider- ations that went into making the final choices. It also provides a description of the historic first AAAI conference and the people that made it happen. The Background and the Context hile the 1950s and 1960s were an ac- tive period for research in AI, there Wwere no organized mechanisms for the members of the community to get together and share ideas and accomplishments. By the early 1960s there were several active research groups in AI, including those at Carnegie Mel- lon University (CMU), the Massachusetts Insti- tute of Technology (MIT), Stanford University, Stanford Research Institute (later SRI Interna- tional), and a little later the University of Southern California Information Sciences Insti- tute (USC-ISI). My own involvement in AI began in 1963, when I joined Stanford as a graduate student working with John McCarthy. After completing my Ph.D. in 1966, I joined the faculty at Stan- ford as an assistant professor and stayed there until 1969 when I left to join Allen Newell and Herb Simon at Carnegie Mellon University Raj Reddy.

  • An Interpreter for the Programming Language Predicate Logic
    AN INTERPRETER FOR THE PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE PREDICATE LOGIC Sten-Ake Tarnlund Computer Science Department University of Stockholm Abstract We describe an Interpreter for the programming language predicate logic. Some topics are; syntax and proof procedure, procedure evocation, function transformation, goal variation and interactive computational control. Introduction The development of programming languages has more and more relieved a programmer from machine control and details, giving him the power of ab­ stract reasoning and thus helped him to concentra­ te more on his problem. Kowalski [8,9] has convin­ cingly argued that predicate logic formalizes a man's thoughts and is a useful simple programming language for human problem solving. Consequently It is desirable to have predicate logic implemen­ ted on machines for practical programming. There is one implementation at the University of Aix- Marseille, PROLOGUE [2]. At the University of Stockholm we have implemented an interpreter in LISP 1,6 [11]. Syntax and Proof Procedure Flg.l. A connection graph.

Non-reuse of memory space, dubbed monotonic computing, is proposed as a fundamental concept that threads together various abstract generalizations of PTime. Depending on the use of space, relational machines generalize DLogSpace, PTime, NPTime and PSpace, We show that alternating first order machines are equivalent, over all finite structures, to mono• tonic machines with positive queries, generalizing the Chandra-Kozen-Stockmeyer Theorem ASpaceif) = DTimeQf), and showing that the latter does not depend on any counting mecha• nism. We also show that of two generalizations of PTime, deterministic monotonic machines and nondeterministic monotonic positive machines, the former can simulate the latter on all structures, and the latter can simulate the former on enumerated structures. Finally, first order inductive definitions are shown to be equivalent to monotonic pointer machines with random selection.

Alle Stellen, die aus Quellen entnommen wurden, sind als solche kenntlich gemacht. Diese Arbeit hat in gleicher oder ähnlicher Form noch keiner Prüfungsbehörde vorgelegen. Darmstadt, den 25.09.2014 (S. Sprankel) 1 Zusammenfassung Reactive Programming hat in den letzten Jahren in der akademischen Welt sowie in der Indus- trie mehr und mehr Aufmerksamkeit erlangt. Verglichen mit traditionellen Techniken hat sich Reactive Programming als effektiver erwiesen, um leichter zu verstehende und besser wartbare Systeme zu implementieren. Leider gibt es momentan aber keine angemessene Tool Unterstüt- zung bei der Entwicklung – vor allem im Hinblick auf den Debugging Prozess. Das Ziel dieser Abschlussarbeit ist es daher, den Debugging Prozess von reaktiven Systemen zu verbessern. Wir präsentieren einen auf Reactive Programming spezialisierten Debugger. Dieser basiert auf dem Abhängigkeitsgraphen von reaktiven Werten und ist von fortgeschrittenen Debugging Tools wie allwissenden Debuggern inspiriert. Mit dem präsentierten System kann der Entwickler den Abhängigkeitsgraphen eines reaktiven Programms nicht nur zu einem bestimmten Zeitpunkt visualisieren, sondern auch frei in der Zeit navigieren. Eine domänenspezifische Abfragespra- che bietet direkten Zugriff auf die Historie des Graphen, sodass man direkt zu interessanten Zeitpunkten springen kann.
