Course description:
The goal of the lecture is to give an introduction to non-classical logics.
We will first present many-valued logics (including fuzzy logics).
The course will then focus on non-classical logics relevant for computer
science,
such as:
- - modal logics and description logics (knowledge representation),
- - temporal logic: LTL, CTL (verification, model checking), and
- - the dynamic logic of programs.
