Mathematical logic and computer architecture

Summary of Research

My current activity concentrates on abstract structures as interpretations of logical theory, centering on closure spaces, which exploits the notion of deductive closure; on logical operations; and on intensional models of classical mathematics. My most significant earlier research was on computer architecture and logical design, especially for missile and space vehicle applications, tracking algorithms for track-while-scan radars, functional completeness in many-valued and delay logic and logical metatheory.
