David Alan Plaisted is a computer science professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

Research interests

Plaisted's research interests include

term rewriting systems, automated theorem proving, logic programming, and algorithms. His research accomplishments in theorem proving include work on the recursive path ordering,[1]
the associative path ordering,[2] abstraction,[3] the simplified and modified problem reduction formats,[4][5] ground reducibility,[6] nonstandard clause form translations,
Knuth–Bendix completion,[9][10] replacement rules in theorem proving,[11] instance-based theorem proving strategies,[12] and semantics in theorem proving.[13]

Education and career

He received his

University of Kaiserslautern in Germany in 1993 and 1994.[citation needed] Plaisted operates a Young Earth creation website called A Creation Perspective.[14][15]
