This book is the second of two volumes that present the main results which emerged from the project CIP - Computer-Aided, Intuition-Guided Programming - at the Technical University of Munich. Its central theme is program development by transformation, a methodology which is becoming more and more important. Whereas Volume I contains the description and formal specification of a wide spectrum language CIP-L particularly tailored to the needs of transformational programming, Volume II serves a double purpose: First, it describes a system, called CIP-S, that is to assist a programmer in the...

The book constitutes the joint refereed proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Relational Methods in Computer Science, RelMiCS 2008, and the 5th International Workshop on Applications of Kleene Algebras, AKA 2008, held in Manchester, UK in April 2008. The 26 revised full papers presented together with 2 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The papers describe the calculus of relations and similar algebraic formalisms as methodological and conceptual tools with special focus on formal methods for software engineering, logics of programs...

This volume contains the proceedings of the 11th International Conference on RelationalMethodsinComputerScience(RelMiCS11)andthe6thInternational Conference on Applications of Kleene Algebra (AKA 6). The joint conference took place in Doha, Quatar, November 1-5, 2009. Its purpose was to bring - gether researchersfrom various subdisciplines of computer science, mathematics and related ?elds who use the calculus of relations and/or Kleene algebra as methodological and conceptual tools in their work. This conference is the joint continuation of two di?erent strands of meetings. The seminars of...
