Rice's Theorem
In computability theory, Rice's theorem states that all non-trivial semantic properties of programs are undecidable problem, undecidable. A ''semantic'' property is one about the program's behavior (for instance, "does the program halting problem, terminate for all inputs?"), unlike a syntactic property (for instance, "does the program contain an if-then-else statement?"). A ''non-trivial'' property is one which is neither true for every program, nor false for every program. The theorem generalizes the undecidability of the halting problem. It has far-reaching implications on the feasibility of static program analysis, static analysis of programs. It implies that it is impossible, for example, to implement a tool that checks whether any given program is correctness (computer science), correct, or even executes without error (it is possible to implement a tool that always overestimates or always underestimates, so in practice one has to decide what is less of a problem). The theorem ...

Work Paul gave himself the middle name "Charles" after Ray Charles, which he shortened to the initial "C". He developed an interest in music from his older brother Michael, who was a guitarist, and Tim, who worked as a recording engineer at 1212 Studio in Queens.

Communications Of The ACM
''Communications of the ACM'' (''CACM'') is the monthly journal of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM). History It was established in 1958, with Saul Rosen as its first managing editor. It is sent to all ACM members. Articles are intended for readers with backgrounds in all areas of computer science and information systems. The focus is on the practical implications of advances in information technology and associated management issues; ACM also publishes a variety of more theoretical journals. The magazine straddles the boundary of a science magazine, trade magazine, and a scientific journal. While the content is subject to peer review, the articles published are often summaries of research that may also be published elsewhere. Material published must be accessible and relevant to a broad readership. From 1960 onward, ''CACM'' also published algorithms, expressed in ALGOL. The collection of algorithms later became known as the Collected Algorithms of the ACM. CA ...
