MFCS 2003 was organized by the Slovak Society for Computer Science and the Comenius University in Bratislava, in cooperation with other institutions in Slovakia. It was supported by the European Association for Theoretical C- puter Science and the Slovak Research Consortium for Informatics and Mat- matics.

The MFCS 2003 Proceedings consists of 7 invited papers and 55 c- tributed papers. The latter were selected by the Program Committee from a total of 137 submitted papers.

This volume contains papers selected for presentation at the 15th Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science, MFCS '90, held at Banská Bystrica, Czechoslovakia, August 27-31, 1990. Previous MFCS proceedings have also been published in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science. This symposium is the 15th in a series of international meetings which have taken place in Czechoslovakia and Poland. The aim of these symposia is to bring together specialists in theoretical fields of computer science from various countries and to stimulate mathematical research in theoretical computer science. These proceedings consist of 10 invited papers and 52 communications selected by the international Program Committee. The papers present the latest results in key areas of computer science by authors from Europe, USA, Japan and China.

This volume constitutes the proceedings of the 19th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Theoretical Computer Science, MFCS '94, held in Kosice, Slovakia in August 1994.MFCS '94 brought together specialists in theoretical fields of computer science from various countries in order to stimulate mathematical research in theoretical computer science. Besides 12 papers based on invited talks by renowned experts, the book contains 42 research contributions selected from a total of 112 submissions. All areas of theoretical computer science are presented, some from a particular mathematical point of view.

This volume contains the invited papers and papers selected for presentation at the 25th conference on Theory and Practice of Informatics | SOFSEM '98, held in Jasn a, Slovakia, November 21{27, 1998. The SOFSEM conference series started in 1974 as a local event in Czec- slovakia and from the very beginning became the top domestic event in software theory and practice. It has been unique in several respects, being a mix of w- ter school, conference, and advanced workshop. It brought together professionals from academia and industry and provided an opportunity for both theoreti- ans and practitioners to learn about the new developments in a broad range of computer science subjects via a series of invited talks. The conference gradually evolved into an international event, keeping most of its original characteristics. It features a relatively large number of invited talks, refereed papers (contributed papers), and refereed poster contributions. In addition, time and space for ?ash communications, industrial presentations, and exhibitions are provided. SOFSEM is every year result of a considerable e ort by a number of p- ple.Its Advisory Board (Dines Bj rner, Manfred Broy, Michal Chytil, Peter van Emde Boas, Georg Gottlob, Keith G. Je rey, Maria Zemankova) and - dowment Board (Keith G. Je rey, Jan Pavelka, Franti sek Pl a sil, Igor Pr vara, Branislav Rovan, vice-chair, Jan Staudek, Ji r Wiedermann, chair) is in process of being transformed into a Steering Committee.

This volume contains papers selected for presentation at the Silver Jubilee 25th Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science | MFCS 2000, held in Bratislava, Slovakia, August 28 { September 1, 2000. MFCS 2000 was organized under the auspices of the Minister of Education of the Slovak Republic, Milan Ft a cnik, by the Slovak Society for Computer Science, and the Comenius University in Bratislava, in cooperation with other institu- ons in Slovakia. It was supported by the European Association for Theoretical Computer Science, the European Research Consortium for Informatics and - thematics, and the Slovak Research Consortium for Informatics and Mathe- tics. The series of MFCS symposia, organized alternately in the Czech Republic, Poland, and Slovakia since 1972, has a well-established tradition. The MFCS symposia encourage high-quality research in all branches of theoretical computer science. Their broad scope provides an opportunity of bringing together spec- lists who do not usually meet at specialized conferences.The previous meetings took place in Jablonna, 1972; Strbsk e Pleso, 1973; Jadwisin, 1974; Mari ansk e L azn e, 1975; Gdansk, 1976; Tatransk a Lomnica, 1977; Zakopane, 1978; Olomouc, 1979; Rydzina, 1980; Strbsk e Pleso, 1981; Prague, 1984; Bratislava, 1986; C- lsbad, 1988; Porabk a-Kozubnik, 1989; Bansk a Bystrica, 1990; Kazimierz Dolny, 1991; Prague, 1992; Gdansk, 1993, Ko sice, 1994; Prague, 1995; Krak ow, 1996; Bratislava, 1997; Brno, 1998; and Szklarska Poreba, 1999.
