With this talk we want to pay tribute to the late Professor Gerd Veenker who deserves the historic credit of initiating the formation of the German AI community. We present a summary of his scientific contributions in the context of the early approaches to theorem proving and, against this background, we point out future perspectives of Automated Deduction. Formal logic is still often looked up...

This paper reviews FreeWill and other AI architectures that have contributed to the ideas, which underlie it. “FreeWill” proposes and implements a cognitive architecture designed for easy creation of animated scenes with many autonomous agents interacting in various ways. The generation of animated human figures especially in crowd scenes has many applications in such domains as the special eff...

Hex is a classic board game invented in the middle of the twentieth century by Piet Hein and rediscovered later by John Nash. The best Hex artificial players analyse the board positions by deducing complex virtual connections from elementary connections using the H-Search algorithm. In this paper, we extend the H-search with a new deduction rule. This new deduction rule is capable of discoverin...

and then one needs to have in place—or to stop and establish—the fact that differentiability implies continuity. Proving the product rule this way can teach students that mathematics is esoteric and fragile, a paralyzing idea in the long run. • Similarly but worse, proving the chain rule inevitably runs into problems. The corresponding trick of inserting two terms that multiply to 1 gives somet...

Paraphimosis usually develops when a tight foreskin is retracted over the glans penis for a prolonged period. Many esoteric aetiologies have been implicated in the development of paraphimosis including piercing the foreskin, Plasmodium falciparum infection, application of celadine juice to the foreskin, chancroid, pessaries and the implantation of pearls. We report the first two cases of paraph...

Following the introduction of atomic absorption spectrometric (AAS) instrumentation about 30 years ago, many specific and sensitive methods for determining trace metal concentrations in biological materials were developed. Yesterday's rare and esoteric investigations are today's routine clinical analyses. Levels of essential and toxic metals can be determined with relative ease for diagnostic p...
