Matt Kaufmann ACL2: Implementation of a Computational Logic ACL2 ("A Computational Logic for Applicative Common Lisp") is a programming language, a first-order logic, and a software system for proving theorems in that logic. In this talk I will give logicians a sense of what ACL2 is, what can be done with it, and especially what sorts of logical issues can arise when attempting to build a powerful yet sound mechanized reasoning system.
