Abstract

This article provides an overview of automated reasoning and of the various fields for which it is relevant. It takes the form of a collection of articles, each covering some field and each written by an expert in that field. A field is introduced, its elements reviewed, the current state of the art given, the basic problems discussed, and the various goals listed. Although individually the goals of each field present a wide spectrum, collectively the fields share the interest of automating the process known as reasoning.
