"6948","From Domains Towards a Logic of Universals: A Small Calculus for the Continuous Determination of Worlds","At the end of the 19th century, 'logic' moved from the discipline of philosophy to that of mathematics. One hundred years later, we have a plethora of formal logics. Looking at the situation form informatics, the mathematical discipline proved only a temporary shelter for `logic'. For there is Domain Theory, a constructive mathematical theory  which extends the notion of computability into the continuum and spans the  field of all possible deductive systems. Domain Theory  describes the space of data-types which computers can ideally compute -- and computation in terms of these types. Domain Theory is constructive but only potentially operational.  Here one particular operational model is derived from Domain Theory which consists of  `universals', that is, model independent operands and operators. With these universals, Domains (logical models) can be approximated and continuously determined. The universal data-types and rules derived from Domain Theory relate strongly to the first formal logic conceived on philosophical grounds, Aristotelian (categorical) logic. This is no accident.  For Aristotle, deduction was type-dependent and he too thought in term of type independent universal `essences'. This paper initiates the next `logical' step `beyond' Domain Theory  by reconnecting `formal logic' with its origin.","http://cogprints.org/6948/","Brillowski, Dr. Claus","UNSPECIFIED","       <span class=\"person_name\">Brillowski, Dr. Claus</span>     (2010)  <a href=\"http://cogprints.org/6948/\"><em>From Domains Towards a Logic of Universals: A Small Calculus for the Continuous Determination of Worlds.</em></a>       [Preprint]           ","brillowski@logike.info","2010-09-02"
