  Consistency proof - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Although consistency can be proved by means of model theory, it is often done in a purely syntactical way, without any need reference to some model of the logic.
The cut-elimination (or equivalently the normalization of the underlying calculus if there is one) implies the consistency of the calculus: since there is obviously no cut-free proof of falsity, there is no contradiction in general.
Gödel's completeness theorem shows that any consistent first-order theory is complete with respect to a maximal consistent set of formulae which are generated by means of a proof search algorithm.

 The "Seamless Garment" and a Consistent Pro-Life Ethic
The case for a consistent ethic of life—one which stands for the protection of the right to life and the promotion of the rights which enhance life from womb to tomb—manifests the positive potential of the Catholic moral and social tradition.
It is both a complex and a demanding tradition; it joins the humanity of the unborn infant and the humanity of the hungry; it calls for positive legal action to prevent the killing of the unborn or the aged and positive societal action to provide shelter for the homeless and education for the illiterate.
A consistent ethic does not say everyone in the Church must do all things, but it does say that as individuals and groups pursue one issue, whether it is opposing abortion or capital punishment, the way we oppose one threat should be related to support for a systemic vision of life.

 PlanetMath: consistent
If a theory is not consistent then it is inconsistent.
This is version 3 of consistent, born on 2002-08-28, modified 2002-09-04.
This definition actually disagrees with the definition in the First Order Logics entry, which defines a set of formulae to be consistent if they don't prove a contradiction.

 Web Caching with Consistent Hashing
With modification to browsers, consistent hashing could be implemented entirely inside them without recourse to DNS; however, the DNS approach exhibits some benefits which may make it the correct one for the long term.
Consistent hashing is therefore a good hashing scheme to use in the dynamically changing and uncertain domain of the Internet.
Consistent Hashing guarantees that the number of virtual names assigned to each cache will be evenly distributed among the caches.

 AskTom "consistent gets -- Very puzzling"   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
Consistents gets are fine but for example if I see a huge consistent gets but I did not know the arraysize someone might think geez it's read tons to satisfy this query, but it was probably because a low arraysize, who knows?
So since consistent gets is determined by the arraysize I wanteds to know some value which does not depend on another parameter, for example the number of database blocks needed to read.
consistent gets means getting a block "as of a point in time" and MAY require read asides to the rollback segment in order to reconstruct the block.

 Cardinal Bernardin Address: Consistent Ethic of Life Conference
This creates the need for a consistent ethic, for the spectrum cuts across such issues as genetics, abortion, capital punishment, modern warfare, and the care of the terminally ill. Admittedly, these are all distinct problems, enormously complex, and deserve individual treatment.
The consistent ethic seeks only to illustrate how this testing goes on when dealing with issues involving the taking of life or the enhancement of life through social policy.
The area that now needs attention is precisely how the framework of the consistent ethic takes shape (a) in the determination of public policy positions taken by the Church and (b)in the decisions that legislators and citizens take in light of the Church's positions.

 consistency / consistent
An equal temperament with an integer number of notes per octave is consistent with JI through some odd limit if a complete chord of that limit is constructed in that equal temperament in the same way no matter which intervals are approximated.
Consistency may be defined for non-octave equal temperaments but then even as well as odd numbers must be considered, and the consistency will be through an "integer limit" rather than an odd limit.
The ordinary, odd-limit consistency of an integer ET can be read from this table as well: it is the largest odd number not exceeding the integer limit.

 Consistent Life Ethic Ring
The consistent ethic philosophy encompasses several issues - anti-abortion, anti-capital punishment, anti-war, anti-euthanasia, anti-racism, anti-nuclear arms, anti-poverty - and stresses their interrelatedness to one another.
In addition to promoting consistent ethic issues, the perspective of this ring is deliberately "alternative" to be open to sites with non-traditional viewpoints, such as those that are feminist, liberal, secular, gay/lesbian, animal rights, etc. It is not my intention to duplicate the strictly anti-abortion web/net rings that already exist.
The Consistent Life Ethic Ring is hosted and managed by me, Kelly Jefferson (pleased to meet you).

 EconPapers: Finite Horizon Bargaining and the Consistent Field
A dynamic approach to the consistent value for NTU games is introduced: the consistent vector field.
The main contribution of the paper is to show that the consistent field is intimately related to the concept of subgame perfection for finite horizon noncooperative bargaining games, as the horizon goes to infinity and the cost of delay goes to zero.
An example is constructed where the consistent field has cyclic solutions; moreover, the finite horizon subgame perfect equilibria do not approach the consistent value.
