The logo is available as bitmap file for the generic Isabelle system
wenzelm@6257
    19
(<a href="#plain">plain</a>, <a href="#transparent">transparent</a>)
wenzelm@6257
    20
and major object logics (<a href="#ZF">ZF</a>, <a href="#HOL">HOL</a>,
wenzelm@6257
    21
<a href="#HOLCF">HOLCF</a>).  There are also <a
wenzelm@5243
    22
href="isabelle-small.xpm">small</a> and <a
wenzelm@5243
    23
href="isabelle-tiny.xpm">tiny</a> Isabelle icons available.
wenzelm@6257
    24
Furthermore, scalable (EPS) versions of the logo may be generated for
wenzelm@28504
    25
any logic using the <tt>isabelle logo</tt> utility distributed with
wenzelm@6257
    26
Isabelle.

    31
<img src="isabelle.gif" align=right alt="[Isabelle logo]"> First of
wenzelm@3858
    32
all, the logo tells about the name of the generic system, Isabelle, or
wenzelm@3800
    33
of its concrete instantiations, e.g. Isabelle/HOL.  It also expresses
wenzelm@3799
    34
some essentials of the overall Isabelle design philosophy: Composition
wenzelm@3799
    35
of several small well understood building blocks, grouped together or
wenzelm@3799
    36
arranged in layers. <p>
wenzelm@3799
    37
wenzelm@3799
    38
The markings on the cubes illustrate this general principle by example
wenzelm@3800
    39
of the core meta-logic (which is minimal higher-order logic on top of
wenzelm@3800
    40
naively polymorphic simply typed lambda calculus). Thus red cubes
wenzelm@7807
    41
symbolize the type system with function spaces (-&gt;) and type
wenzelm@7807
    42
variables (alpha); violet ones represent the lambda term language with
wenzelm@7807
    43
beta conversion etc.; yellow cubes constitute the actual logical
wenzelm@7807
    44
parts, namely meta-implication or entailment (|-) and meta-level
wenzelm@7807
    45
universal quantification.
