Computation, Logic, Games, and Quantum Foundations - The Many Facets of Samson Abramsky
Springer Berlin (Verlag)
978-3-642-38163-8 (ISBN)
This Festschrift volume, published in honor of Samson Abramsky, contains contributions written by some of his colleagues, former students, and friends. In celebration of the 60th birthday of Samson Abramsky, a conference was held in Oxford, UK, during May 28-30, 2010. The papers in this volume represent his manifold contributions to semantics, logic, games, and quantum mechanics.
