Hoare logic (also known as Floyd–Hoare logic or Hoare rules) is a formal system with a set of logical rules for reasoning rigorously about the correctness of computer programs. It was proposed in 1969 by the British computer scientist and logician Tony Hoare , and subsequently refined by Hoare and other researchers. [ 1 ]
Co-developed the monitor with Tony Hoare, and created the first monitor implementation. [18] Implemented the first form of remote procedure call in the RC 4000, [17] and was first to propose remote procedure calls as a structuring concept for distributed computing. [19] 1959, 1995 Brooks, Fred
The process of moving forward with your new invention can be a complex and challenging one, so the more services you can gain access to, the better it will be for you.
Prentice Hall International Series in Computer Science was a series of books on computer science published by Prentice Hall. [1] The series' founding editor was Tony Hoare. Richard Bird subsequently took over editing the series. [2] Many of the books in the series have been in the area of formal methods in particular.
Quicksort is an efficient, general-purpose sorting algorithm.Quicksort was developed by British computer scientist Tony Hoare in 1959 [1] and published in 1961. [2] It is still a commonly used algorithm for sorting.
Professor Roscoe works in the area of concurrency theory, [4] in particular the semantic underpinning of Communicating Sequential Processes (CSP) and the associated occam programming language with Sir Tony Hoare. [5] He co-founded Formal Systems (Europe) Limited and worked on the algorithms for the Failures-Divergence Refinement (FDR) tool.
