Sommario/riassunto |
|
Computability has played a crucial role in mathematics and computer science, leading to the discovery, understanding and classification of |

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
decidable/undecidable problems, paving the way for the modern computer era, and affecting deeply our view of the world. Recent new paradigms of computation, based on biological and physical models, address in a radically new way questions of efficiency and challenge assumptions about the so-called Turing barrier. This volume addresses various aspects of the ways computability and theoretical computer science enable scientists and philosophers to deal with m |
