The aim of this article is to present, in outline, a representative selection of the ways in which formal logic has been of service to computer science. Logic offers so many possibilities of application, and there are so many diverse groups of researchers developing logic-based applications, that it will be impossible in the space available to do justice to the whole field. Indeed it will be im...
