Abstract
A model for computation over an arbitrary (ordered) ring R is presented. In this general setting, universal machines, partial recursive functions, and NP-complete problems are obtained. While the theory reflects of classical over Z (e.g. the computable functions are the recursive functions), it also reflects the special mathematical character of the underlying ring R (e.g. complements of Julia sets provide natural examples of recursively enumerable undecidable sets over the reals) and provides a natural setting for studying foundational issues concerning algorithms in numerical analysis.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
