This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the Joint ERCIM/CoLogNET International Workshop on Constraint Solving and Constraint Logic Programming, CSCLP 2003 held in Budapest, Hungary in June/July 2003.
The 15 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the book. The papers are organized in Topical sections on constraint solving, soft constraints, language issues, and applications.

HIS BOOK CONTAINS a most comprehensive text that presents syntax-directed and compositional methods for the formal veri?- T cation of programs. The approach is not language-bounded in the sense that it covers a large variety of programming models and features that appear in most modern programming languages. It covers the classes of - quential and parallel, deterministic and non-deterministic, distributed and object-oriented programs. For each of the classes it presents the various c- teria of correctness that are relevant for these classes, such as interference freedom, deadlock freedom, and...

Dieses Buch bietet als erstes Lehrbuch eine systematische Einf}hrung in die Programmverifikation. Sequentielle, parallele und verteilte Programme werdenin einheitlicher Weise behandelt. In den einzelnen Kapiteln des Buches werden deterministische und nichtdeterministische Programme, Programme mit gemeinsamen Variablen und verteilte Programme mit Kommunikation }berBotschaftenaustausch behandelt. F}r jede dieser Programmklassen werden eine operationelle Semantik, Syntax-gerichtete Verifikationsregeln mitsamt Korrektheitsbeweis und ein gr- eres Verifikationsbeispiel vorgestellt. Insbesondere...

The cooperation test [Apt, Francez & de Roever] was originally conceived to capture the proof theoretical analogue of distributed message exchange between disjoint processes, as opposed to the interference freedom test [Owicki & Gries], being the proof theoretical analogue of concurrent communication by means of interference through jointly shared variables. Some authors ([Levin & Gries, Lamport & Schneider, Schlichting and Schneider]) stress that both forms of communication can be proof theoretically characterized using interference freedom only, since proofs for both ultimately amount to an...

Logic Programming was founded 25 years ago. This exciting new text reveals both the evolution of this programming paradigm since its inception and the impressively broad scope of current research in Logic Programming. The contributions to the book deal with both theoretical and practical issues. They address such diverse topics as: computational molecular biology, machine learning, mobile computing, multi-agent systems, planning, numerical computing and dynamical systems, database systems, an alternative to the "formulas as types" approach, program semantics and analysis, and natural language...
