Ωmega: Ein mathematisches Assistenzsystem

Ωmega: A Mathematical Assistant System

  • Published:
Kognitionswissenschaft

Summary

Ωmega is a deduction system for the mathematical practice and mathematics education. The underlying vision is that of an automated mathematical assistant that supports the working mathematician in many tasks. The current system consists of a proof planner and an integrated collection of tools for formulating problems, proving subproblems, and proof presentation. In the otherwise more technologydominated field of automated theorem proving, Ωmega is one of the few systems that are cognitively motivated as well.

Zusammenfassung

Ωmega ist ein Deduktionssystem, das für die mathematische Forschung und Lehre entwickelt wird. Die zugrundeliegende Vision ist die eines automatischen mathematischen Assistenzsystems, das den Mathematiker bei vielen anfallenden Aufgaben unterstützt. Das System besteht aus einem Beweisplaner und einer Reihe integrierter Unterstützungssysteme, die bei der Problemformulierung, beim Beweisen von Teilproblemen und bei der Präsentation der Beweise helfen können. Die Systemkonzeption stellt im sonst eher technologiedominerten automatischen Beweisen einen der wenigen auch kognitiv motivierten Ansätze dar.
