by Helene Kirchner, Pierre-Etienne Moreau
Publisher: ESSLLI 2001
Number of pages: 100
Description:
This text first introduces the concept of rewriting which is behind rule-based systems. Then the rewriting logic and the rewriting calculus are defined and shown to be especially suited to describing concurrent and non-deterministic computations.
