Trakhtenbrot 100 Event

 

It is 100 years since the birth, on 20 February 1921 (Gregorian), of Boris Abramovich (Boaz) Trakhtenbrot. Boaz passed away on 19 September 2016 in Rehovot. He was a founding father of theoretical computer science in general and of the logic of computer

science in particular. And he was a beloved founder of our school of computer science at Tel Aviv University. Click here for an obituary. and here for some historical photographs.

Originally, we planned to host an international conference during February 2021 in Israel in his memory and honor. For obvious reasons, we were forced to postpone this plan. Instead, there will be a "hybrid" conference at Tel Aviv University, 24-25 October 2021, 3:30-8:45 pm. In addition to technical scientific contributions, there will be a memorial session.
