This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the 5th International Workshop on Web Services and Formal Methods, WS-FM 2008, held in Milan, Italy, in September 2008 in conjunction with the 6th International Conference on Business Process Management, BPM 2008. The 13 revised full papers presented together with one invited paper were carefully reviewed and selected from 39 submissions. The papers feature topics such as analysis, test, and verification; choreographies and process calculi; transactions and interoperability; workflows and petri nets.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 30th International Conference on Applications and Theory of Petri Nets and Other Models of Concurrency, PETRI NETS 2009, held in Paris, France, in June 2009. The 19 revised papers classified as theory papers (13), application papers (1), and tool papers (5) were carefully reviewed and selected from 46 submissions. All current issues on research and development in the area of Petri nets and related models of concurrent systems are addressed, novel tools as well as substantial enhancements to existing tools are presented.

These Transactions publish archival papers in the broad area of Petri nets and other models of concurrency, ranging from theoretical work to tool support and industrial applications. ToPNoC issues are published as LNCS volumes, and hence are widely distributed and indexed. This Journal has its own Editorial Board which selects papers based on a rigorous two-stage refereeing process. ToPNoC contains: - Revised versions of a selection of the best papers from workshops and tutorials at the annual Petri net conferences - Special sections/issues within particular subareas (similar to those published in the Advances in Petri Nets series) - Other papers invited for publication in ToPNoC - Papers submitted directly to ToPNoC by their authors The 7th volume of ToPNoC contains revised material from the 5th International Summer School “Advanced Course on Petri Nets”, held in September 2010 in Rostock, Germany. The nine papers cover a diverse range of topics including modeling, verification, partial order semantics, and synthesis of Petri nets. In compliance with their origin as course material, the papers are written in survey or tutorial style and give a comprehensive overview of the state of the art in their respective areas.

Das Lehrbuch befasst sich mit dem präzisen Denken, einer Schlüsselkompetenz im Studium der Informatik. Es bildet die Vorstufe für das Verständnis der logischen Grundfunktionen der Informatik. Das Erlernen der mathematischen Logik ist ein wesentlicher Bestandteil des Grundstudiums, da  das logische Denken in der Informatik auf den gleichen Regeln und Techniken basiert wie in der Mathematik. Der Autor führt umfassend in die Aussagenlogik ein und erklärt unter anderem die Bedeutungen von logischer Äquivalenz, Implikation und Induktion für diesen Fachbereich. Darüber hinaus definiert er den Beweis aus Sicht der Mathematik und stellt grundlegende Beweisstrategien vor, die im Studium benötigt werden. Mit den in diesem Lehrbuch vorgestellten Techniken des präzisen Denkens erwerben die Studenten die Fähigkeit, Begriffe punktgenau zu definieren, Aussagen trennscharf zu formulieren und ihre Richtigkeit angemessen zu begründen. Viele praxisnahe Aufgaben und Lösungshinweise innerhalb derKapitel erleichtern die Überprüfung und Vertiefung des Lernstoffs.Der Autor richtet sich vornehmlich an Bachelorstudenten der ersten Semester. Sie finden in diesem Werk eine optimale Vorbereitung auf die Logik-Seminare ihres Informatikstudiums. Die vermittelten Kompetenzen verbessern dabei nicht nur das Verständnis im Informatik-Studium, sondern sind ebenso für das spätere Berufsleben von großer Bedeutung. Darüber hinaus erhalten auch interessierte Laien mit diesem Buch einen interessanten Einblick in die  Welt der Informatik und Mathematik und lernen, dass die Fähigkeit zu präzisem Denken auch jenseits dieser Fachbereiche hilfreich sein kann.
