Towards the decidability of the theory of modules over finite commutative rings

On the basis of the Klingler–Levy classification of finitely generated modules over commutative noetherian rings we approach the old problem of classifying finite commutative rings R with a decidable theory of modules. We prove that if R is (finite length) wild, then the theory of all R-modules is undecidable, and verify decidability of this theory for some classes of tame finite commutative rings.
