Editor:
1) More apt to say "algebra" rather than "logic" in the entry for 乔治·布尔.
a) Britannica ~ "[Boole's] algebra of logic, now called Boolean algebra, is basic to the design of digital computer circuits."
b) Wp ~ 以發明布林代數的數學家喬治·布爾為名。

2) I think adding (Tw) is probably justified.
"布尔代数" - 135k
"布林代数" - 10k
So, on the mainland, "Boolean algebra" is usually 布尔代数, not 布林代数.

Meanwhile, there are more results for 布林代數 (presumably, mostly from Taiwan) than there are for 布林代数.
