This volume contains the papers presented at WoLLIC 2010: 17th Workshop on Logic, Language, Information and Computation held during July 6–9, 2010, on the campus of Universidade de Bras´ ?lia (UnB), Brazil. The Workshop on Logic, Language, Information and Computation (WoL- LIC) is an annual event, meeting every year since 1994, which aims at fostering interdisciplinary research in pure and applied logic. The idea is to have a forum which is large enough in the number of possible interactions between logic and the sciences related to information and computation, and yet is small enough to allow for concrete and useful interaction among participants. The present volume contains 13 contributed papers that were selected from among 32 submissions after a rigorous review by the Program Committee. Each submission was reviewed by at least two, and on average three, Program C- mittee members. This volume also containspapersor abstractsthat relateto the seven invited talks presented at the workshop. Between them, these papers give a snapshot of some fascinating work taking place at the frontiers between computation, logic, and linguistics. We are grateful to all the people who made this meeting possible and are responsible for its success: the members of the Program Committee and the external reviewers, the invited speakers, the contributors, and the people who were involved in organizing the workshop.

The annual conference of the European Association for Computer Science Logic (EACSL), CSL 2010, was held in Brno (Czech Republic), August 23-27, 2010. The conference started as a series of international workshops on Computer S- ence Logic, and then at its sixth meeting became the Annual Conference of the EACSL. This conference was the 24th meeting and 19th EACSL conference; it was organized at the Faculty of Informatics, Masaryk University, Brno. In 2010, CSL and the 35th International Symposium on Mathematical Fo- dations of Computer Science (MFCS 2010)were federated and organizedin p- allel at the same place. The technical program and proceedings of MFCS 2010 andCSL2010werepreparedindependently. The federatedMFCSandCSL 2010 conference had ?ve common plenary sessions and common social events for all participants. The common plenary speakers were David Basin (Zur .. ich), Herbert Edelsbrunner(Klosterneuburg),ErichGrad .. el(Aachen),BojanMohar(Burnaby, Ljubljana), and Joseph Sifakis (Grenoble). Invited papers by David Basin and ErichGr. adelwereincludedintheproceedingsofCSL.Inaddition,CSL2010had ?ve invited speakers, namely, Peter O'Hearn (London), Jan Krajicek (Prague), Andrei Krokhin (Durham), Andrey Rybalchenko (Munich), and Viktor Kuncak (Lausanne).

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Turing Centenary Conference and the 8th Conference on Computability in Europe, CiE 2012, held in Cambridge, UK, in June 2012. The 53 revised papers presented together with 6 invited lectures were carefully reviewed and selected with an acceptance rate of under 29,8%. The CiE 2012 Turing Centenary Conference will be remembered as a historic event in the continuing development of the powerful explanatory role of computability across a wide spectrum of research areas. The papers presented at CiE 2012 represent the best of current research in the area, and forms a fitting tribute to the short but brilliant trajectory of Alan Mathison Turing. Both the conference series and the association promote the development of computability-related science, ranging over mathematics, computer science and applications in various natural and engineering sciences such as physics and biology, and also including the promotion of related non-scientific fields such as philosophy and history of computing.
