IEEE — Standards Organization?!

I don’t mean to be rude but IEEE has done it this time. I was wondering why their publication styles are so typographically ugly but at least that could be justified. Now, they’ve come up with a “new” computer.org home page and … well, just take a look at it:

That’s what bachelor’s students design when they’re learning FrontPage! Sheesh!

LEO II

LEO-II is a standalone, resolution-based higher-order theorem prover designed for fruitful cooperation with specialist provers for natural fragments of higher-order logic such as first-order and propositional logic. Currently LEO-II cooperates with the first-order automated theorem provers E, SPASS, and Vampire.

LEO-II is implemented in Objective CAML (Version 3.09) and its problem representation language is TPTP THF.

The development of LEO-II has been supported by the EPRSC grant EP/D070511/1 at Cambridge University, England.

I post this here for two reasons. First, the LEO team includes Larry Paulson. So, this will have some connections with Isabelle.

Secondly, take a look at the EPRSC grant page. It can guide us in writing our own project grant information page.
