Begraben unter Phänomenen, von Christian Gapp. “Die auf “Anwendungsbezug” setzende Vermittlung von Mathematik verhindert genau das, was sie angeblich bewirken sollte: Begeisterung für Mathematik als Kulturwissenschaft.”
Society, you’re a crazy breed.
I hope you’re not lonely, without me.

An Abstract Unification Machine, by Mark Tarver. “The Abstract Unification Machine (AUM) is a model for compiling Horn clauses into a functional language. The approach of the AUM is derived from lessons learnt into compiling an extended lambda calculus. The paper opens by describing an accepted model for compiling a pattern- directed functional language and then goes on to describe the AUM in two stages. In the first stage, we describe the AUM at an abstract level, in terms of its ability to generate virtual instructions for a functional programming language. In the second stage, we describe a concrete interpretation of these instructions in Common Lisp.”
