This volume contains the ?nal proceedings of the Sixth International Andrei Ershov Memorial Conference on Perspectives of System Informatics (PSI 2006), held in Akademgorodok (Novosibirsk, Russia), June 27-30, 2006. The conference was held to honour the 75th anniversary of a member of the Russian Academy of Sciences Andrei Ershov (1931 1988) and his outsta- ing contributions towards advancing informatics. The role of Andrei Ershov in the establishment and development of the theory of programming and systems programming in our country cannot be overestimated. Andrei was one of the founders of...

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Foundations of Software Science and Computation Structures, FOSSACS 2007, held in Braga, Portugal in March/April 2007. The 25 revised full papers presented together with the abstract of one invited talk cover a broad spectrum on theories and methods to support analysis, synthesis, transformation and verification of programs and software systems.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed postproceedings of the 16th International Symposium on Logic Based Program Synthesis and Transformation, LOPSTR 2006, held in Venice, Italy, July 2006 in conjunction with ICALP 2006, PPDP 2006, and CSFW 2006. The 14 revised full papers cover tools for program development, partial evaluation and program transformation, security and synthesis, debugging and testing, as well as termination and analysis.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed postproceedings of the 18th International Workshop on Algebraic Development Techniques, WADT 2006, held in La Roche en Ardenne, Belgium, June 2006. The 10 revised full papers focus on the algebraic approach to the specification and development of systems and address topics such as formal methods for system development, specification languages and methods, and distributed and mobile systems.

This volume constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Conference on Algebraic Biology. The conference served as an interdisciplinary forum for the presentation of research on all aspects of the application of symbolic computation in biology, including computer algebra, computational logic, and related methods. Papers also examine solutions to problems in biology using symbolic methods.

The refereed post-proceedings of the International Workshop of the Types Working Group are presented in this volume. The 17 papers address all current issues in formal reasoning and computer programming based on type theory, including languages and computerized tools for reasoning; applications in several domains, such as analysis of programming languages; certified software; formalization of mathematics; and mathematics education.

Formal methods have been applied successfully to the verification of medium-sized programs in protocol and hardware design. However, their application to the development of large systems requires more emphasis on specification, modelling and validation techniques supporting the concepts of reusability and modifiability, and their implementation in new extensions of existing programming languages.

This book presents 12 revised lectures given by top-researchers at the 5th International Symposium on Formal Methods for Components and Objects, FMCO 2006, held in Amsterdam, Netherlands,...

There are a large number of fuzzy logic applications. This volume explains how to use fuzzy logic to find solutions in areas such as control systems, factory automation, product quality control, product inspection, instrumentation, pattern recognition, image analysis, database query processing, decision support, data mining, time series (waveform) databases) geographic information systemts, and image databases.

This volume contains the papers which were presented to the workshop "Computer-Science Logic" held in Karlsruhe on October 12-16, 1987. Traditionally Logic, or more specifically, Mathematical Logic splits into several subareas: Set Theory, Proof Theory, Recursion Theory, and Model Theory. In addition there is what sometimes is called Philosophical Logic which deals with topics like nonclassical logics and which for historical reasons has been developed mainly at philosphical departments rather than at mathematics institutions. Today Computer Science challenges Logic in a new way. The...

The hierarchical decomposition of programs into smaller ones is generally considered imperative to master the complexity of large programs. The impact of this principle of program decomposition on the specification and verification of parallel executed programs is the subject of this monograph. Two important yardsticks for verification methods, those of compositionality and modularity, are made precise. The problem of reusing software is addressed by the introduction of the notion of specification adaptation. Within this context, different methods for specifying the observable behavior with...
