"ONTIC, a sequent based high level proof system. Ontic is an integrated system for the development and manipulation of technical information, such as abstract mathematical concepts and theorems, formal system specifications, system implementations, and system verifications. The Ontic language is a simple generalization of strongly typed functional programming languages like ML and the typed
lambda-calculus."
