Synopsis

th This volume contains the proceedings of the 19 FST&TCS conference (Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science), - ganized under the auspices of the Indian Association for Research in Computing Science (http://www. imsc. ernet. in/~iarcs). This year's conference attracted 84 submissions from as many as 25 dieren t countries. Each submission was reviewed by at least three independent referees. th After a week-long e-mail discussion, the program committee met on the 7 th and 8 of August, 1999, in Chennai and selected 30 papers for inclusion in the conference program.
