Foundations of Computing (2017/2018)
The teaching is organized as follows:
Learning outcomes
The aim of the course is to present: (i) the theoretical bases of programming languages; (ii) the main paradigms and techniques of symbolic representation and automatic solution of problems. For this purpose, in the language module, various paradigmatic languages will be studied, even of a higher order. This module will focus on the concepts of operational and system-based semantics. Instead, the Artificial Intelligence module provides tools for designing, applying, and evaluating algorithms for difficult problems. The mechanized solution of such problems captures aspects of artificial intelligence or computational rationality.
Program
Please, refer to the programs of the two modules that constitute the course.
