This generality can be achieved by applying the theory of institutions that provides a precise mathematical formulation for the intuitive concept of a logical system. Especially in computer science, where the development of a huge number of specification logics is observable, institution-independent model theory simplifies and sometimes even enables a concise model-theoretic analysis of the system. Besides incorporating important methods and concepts from conventional model theory, the proposed top-down methodology allows for a structurally clean understanding of model-theoretic phenomena. As a consequence, results from conventional concrete model theory can be understood more easily, and sometimes even new results are obtained. 410 0$aStudies in universal logic. 606 $aModel theory 606 $aLogic, Symbolic and mathematical 615 0$aModel theory. 615 0$aLogic, Symbolic and mathematical. 676 $a511.3 676 $a511.34 700 $aDiaconescu$b Ra?zvan$01469292 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910782098603321 996 $aInstitution-independent model theory$93680729 997 $aUNINA
