Description for Computer Science Reconsidered
Hardcover. The Invocation Model of Process Expression argues that mathematics does not provide the most appropriate conceptual foundations for computer science, but, rather, that these foundations are a primary source of unnecessary complexity and confusion. Num Pages: 270 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: TJ; UM; UY. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 161 x 20. Weight in Grams: 550.
The Invocation Model of Process Expression argues that mathematics does not provide the most appropriate conceptual foundations for computer science, but, rather, that these foundations are a primary source of unnecessary complexity and confusion. It supports that there is a more appropriate conceptual model that unifies forms of expression considered quite disparate and simplifies issues considered complex and intractable. This book presents that this model of process expression is alternative theory of computer science that is both valid and practical.

Reviews for Computer Science Reconsidered
"I strongly recommend the book for computer systems and scientific applications in specialist teaching disciplines, as well as practical and industrial-based or research-driven enhancement and management-science sectors." (Computing Reviews, January 30, 2009) "…Fant's work is certainly thought-provoking and should be of great interest to those concerned with theoretical computer science." (British Computer Society Book Reviews) "Karl Fant ... Read more
