Many-worlds theory of truth

The logical world is a set of propositions, united by common principles of establishing their truth. The many-worlds theory asserting that the truth of any proposition in any given logical world is always established by comparing it with standard propositions in this world – directly or via the procedure of transferring the truth.

The Discussion on The Private Language Argument: Linguist Versus Philosopher

The Author: Vsevolod Ladov,
The article is devoted to the discussion on the private language argument. I want to support the position already expressed by G.P. Baker and P.M.S. Hacker, adding to it yet one argument which may, in my opinion, make this view more intelligible and clearer.

On Substitutivity of Proper Names in Propositional Attitude Contexts

The Author: Petr Kusliy,
The main goal of the article is to argue for admissibility of substitution of coreferential proper names in belief contexts which generally has not been allowed in the logico-semantic tradition that dates back to the works of G.Frege.

Practical Logic for Economists and All Users of Tables

This paper presents our work on development of OWL-driven systems for formal representation and reasoning about terminological knowledge and facts in petrology.

Program Structure

The Author: Alex Shkotin,
A program is usually represented as a word chain. It is exactly a word chain that appears as the lexical analyzer output and is parsed. The work shows that a program can be syntactically represented as an oriented word tree, that is a syntactic program tree, program words being located both in tree nodes and on tree arrows.
