First International Conference on Rewriting Techniques and Applications

The 1st International Workshop on Conditional Term Rewriting Systems took place in Orsay (University of Paris-Sud) in July 1987, and brought together most of the researchers involved in the field. Conditional rewriting has actually known important breakthroughs during the last two years; it was the purpose of the workshop to put the results together, to present new, original contributions to the domain, and to discuss still unsolved issues. These contributions are reported in the proceedings. The main questions that have been addressed are the different semantics for conditional rewriting and their classification, possible extensions to the basic formalism, and the relationship between conditional rewriting and logic programming. Also, more practical issues such as applications and implementations of conditional term rewriting systems have been addressed. Descriptions of seven actual systems allowing conditional rewriting are included.

Joseph Goguen is one of the most prominent computer scientists worldwide. His numerous research contributions span many topics and have changed the way we think about many concepts. Our views about data types, programming languages, software specification and verification, computational behavior, logics in computer science, semiotics, interface design, multimedia, and consciousness, to mention just some of the areas, have all been enriched in fundamental ways by his ideas.This Festschrift volume - published to honor Joseph Goguen on his 65th Birthday on June 28, 2006 - includes 32 refereed papers by leading researchers in the different areas spanned by Joseph Goguen's work. The papers address a broad variety of topics from meaning, meta-logic, specification and composition, behavior and formal languages, as well as models, deduction, and computation.The papers were presented at a Symposium in San Diego, California, USA in June 2006. Both the Festschrift volume and the Symposium allow the articulation of a retrospective and prospective view of a range of related research topics by key members of the research community in computer science and other fields connected with Joseph Goguen's work.

This volume contains the proceedings of the fourthInternational Joint Conference on the Theory and Practice ofSoftware Development, TAPSOFT '93. Since the first in 1985,the aim of these conferences has been to bring togethertheoretical computer scientists and researchers in softwareengineering with a view to discussing how formal methods canusefully be applied in software development. TAPSOFT '93 consists ofthree parts: an advanced seminar,the Colloquium on Trees in Algebra and Programming (CAAP),and the Colloquium on Formal Approaches of SoftwareEngineering (FASE). The advanced seminar includes fourinvited surveys and four invited conferences. The selectedpapers for CAAP are organized in seven sessions:specifications and proofs, concurrency, automata andcounting, constraints solving, rewriting, logic and trees,analysis of algorithms, and a common session with FASE ontype inference.The selected papers for FASE are presentedin eight sessions: case studies in formal design anddevelopment, compositionality modules and development,formal development, foundations and analysis of formalspecifications, verification of concurrent systems, modelchecking, parallel calculus, and a common session with CAAPon type inference.

This volume constitutes the proceedings of the First International Conference on Constraints in Computational Logics, CCL '94, held in Munich, Germany in September 1994. Besides abstracts or full papers of the 5 invited talks by senior researchers, the book contains revised versions of the 21 accepted research papers selected from a total of 52 submissions. The volume assembles high quality original papers covering major theoretical and practical issues of combining and extending programming paradigms, preferably by using constraints. The topics covered include symbolic constraints, set constraints, numerical constraints, multi-paradigm programming, combined calculi, constraints in rewriting, deduction, symbolic computations, and working systems.

This volume contains thoroughly revised versions of the contributions presented at the French Spring School of Theoretical Computer Science, held in Font Romeu, France in May 1993.This seminar was devoted to rewriting in a broad sense, as rewriting is now an important discipline, relating to many other areas such as formal languages, models of concurrency, tree automata, functional programming languages, constraints, symbolic computation, and automated deduction. The book includes a number of surveys contributed by senior researchers as well as a few papers presenting original research of relevance for the broader theoretical computer science community.

This book constitutes the referred proceedings of the First International Conference on Certified Programs and Proofs, CPP 2011, held in Kenting, Taiwan, in December 2011. The 24 revised regular papers presented together with 4 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 49 submissions. They are organized in topical sections on logic and types, certificates, formalization, proof assistants, teaching, programming languages, hardware certification, miscellaneous, and proof perls.
