چکیده

imps, an Interactive Mathematical Proof System, is intended to provide mechanical support for traditional mathematical techniques and styles of practice. The system consists of a library of axiomatic theories and a collection of tools for exploring and extending the mathematics embodied in the theory library. One of the chief tools is a facility for developing formal proofs. imps is equally well-suited for applications in mathematics education and in the development of high assurance hardware and software. The imps system is available without fee (under the terms of a public license) at the ftp site math.harvard.edu and at the following Web pages:

IMPS: System Description

Support for the Axiomatic Method. imps supports the “little theories” version of the axiomatic method, as opposed to the “big theory” version. In the big theory approach, all reasoning is carried out within one theory—usually some highly expressive theory, such as the Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory. In the little theories approach, reasoning is distributed over a network of theories. Results are t...

Possibilities for an in vitro meat production system

a r t i c l e i n f o Keywords: In vitro meat Myocyte culturing Meat substitutes Meat produced in vitro has been proposed as a humane, safe and environmentally beneficial alternative to slaughtered animal flesh as a source of nutritional muscle tissue. The basic methodology of an in vitro meat production system (IMPS) involves culturing muscle tissue in a liquid medium on a large scale. Each co...

Inconsistency Management Policies

Though there is much work on how inconsistency in databases should be managed, there is good reason to believe that end users will want to bring their domain expertise and needs to bear in how to deal with inconsistencies. In this paper, we propose the concept of inconsistency management policies (IMPs). We show that IMPs are rich enough to specify many types of inconsistency management methods...

A Scheme for Defining Partial Higher-Order Functions by Recursion

This paper describes a scheme for defining partial higher-order functions as the least fixed points of monotone functionals. The scheme can be used to define both single functions by recursion and systems of functions by mutual recursion. The scheme is implemented in the IMPS Interactive Mathematical Proof System. The IMPS implementation includes an automatic syntactic check for monotonicity th...
