The 2024 Alonzo Church Award for Outstanding Contributions to Logic and Computation is presented jointly to Thomas Ehrhard and Laurent Regnier for giving a logical and computational account of differentiation, bringing Taylor expansion to the Curry-Howard correspondence, which had a major impact on programming language semantics. The awarded papers are: Thomas Ehrhard. Finiteness spaces. In:… Continue reading »
