Synopsis

The European conference situationin the general area of software science has longbeen considered unsatisfactory. A fairlylarge number of small and medi- sized conferences and workshops take place on an irregular basis, competing for high-quality contributions and for enough attendees to make them ?nancially viable. Discussions aiming at a consolidation have been underway since at least 1992, with concrete planning beginning in summer 1994 and culminating in a public meeting at TAPSOFT’95 in Aarhus. On the basis of a broad consensus, it was decided to establish a single annual federated spring conference in the slot that was then occupied by TAPSOFT and CAAP/ESOP/CC, comprising a number of existing and new conferences and covering a spectrum from theory to practice. ETAPS’98, the ?rst instance of the European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software, is taking place this year in Lisbon. It comprises ?ve conferences (FoSSaCS, FASE, ESOP, CC, TACAS), four workshops (ACoS, VISUAL, WADT, CMCS), seven invited lectures, and nine tutorials.

About this title

Synopsis

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the 13th International Workshop on Algebraic Development Techniques, WADT'98, held in Lisbon, Portugal, in April 1998, as part of ETAPS'98.The 21 revised full papers presented were selected during two rounds of reviewing and revision for inclusion in the book. The papers address all current issues in the area, in particular algebraic (and other) specification techniques, algebraic combination of logics, algebraic structures and logics for concurrency, other algebraic structures and their logics, specification languages and their associated methods and tools, and term rewriting and theorem proving.
