Database Theory, Yuri, and Me
نویسنده
چکیده
Yuri Gurevich made many varied and deep contributions to logic for computer science. Logic provides also the theoretical foundation of database systems. Hence, it is almost unavoidable that Gurevich made some great contributions to database theory. We discuss some of these contributions, and, along the way, present some personal anecdotes connected to Yuri and the author. We also describe the honorary doctorate awarded to Gurevich by Hasselt University (then called Limburgs Universitair Centrum) in 1998. Dedicated to Yuri Gurevich, the “man with a plan”, on his 70th birthday.

متن کاملA New Approach for Knowledge Based Systems Reduction using Rough Sets Theory (RESEARCH NOTE)
Problem of knowledge analysis for decision support system is the most difficult task of information systems. This paper presents a new approach based on notions of mathematical theory of Rough Sets to solve this problem. Using these concepts a systematic approach has been developed to reduce the size of decision database and extract reduced rules set from vague and uncertain data. The method ha...

Acknowledgments First, I wish to thank my advisor, Ranga Myneni, for his truly energetic guidance of my scientific work. His words and actions taught me the importance of labor and persistence, necessary to perform research at a high level and how to participate in large scientific projects. I am also grateful to Yuri Knyazikhin for his superb assistance with nearly every practical aspect of my...
متن کاملAround Susy 1970
Let me turn back to look at the past, and tell you about the history of construction of the first supersymmetric model. The papers I will shortly review have been for the most part rather inaccessible. A part of the results obtained is presented only in my Ph.D. thesis. I will also mention some lost opportunities and delusions. I graduated from the Physical Department of Moscow State University...
