This volume contains 11 invited lectures and 42 communications presented at the 13th Conference on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science, MFCS '88, held at Carlsbad, Czechoslovakia, August 29 - September 2, 1988. Most of the papers present material from the following four fields: - complexity theory, in particular structural complexity, - concurrency and parellelism, - formal language theory, - semantics. Other areas treated in the proceedings include functional programming, inductive syntactical synthesis, unification algorithms, relational databases and incremental attribute evaluation.

This book presents the proceedings of the 20th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science, MFCS'95, held in Prague, Czech Republic in August/September 1995. The book contains eight invited papers and two abstracts of invited talks by outstanding scientists as well as 44 revised full research papers selected from a total of 104 submissions. All relevant aspects of theoretical computer science are addressed, particularly the mathematical foundations; the papers are organized in sections on structural complexity, algorithms, complexity theory, graphs in models of computation, lower bounds, formal languages, unification, rewriting and type theory, distributed computation, concurrency, semantics, model checking, and formal calculi.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 23rd International Symposium on the Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science, MFCS'98, held in Brno, Czech Republic, in August 1998. The 71 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 168 submissions. Also included are 11 full invited surveys by prominent leaders in the area. The papers are organized in topical sections on problem complexity; logic, semantics, and automata; rewriting; automata and transducers; typing; concurrency, semantics, and logic; circuit complexity; programming; structural complexity; formal languages; graphs; Turing complexity and logic; binary decision diagrams, etc..

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 25th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science, MFCS 2000, held in Bratislava/Slovakia in August/September 2000. The 57 revised full papers presented together with eight invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 147 submissions. The book gives an excellent overview on current research in theoretical informatics. All relevant foundational issues, from mathematical logics as well as from discrete mathematics are covered. Anybody interested in theoretical computer science or the theory of computing will benefit from this book.

This volume is a collection of the most important contributions presented at the second MFDBS conference held in Visegrád, Hungary, June 26-30, 1989. The papers selected from more than one hundred submissions, originating from 23 countries in 4 continents, can be roughly divided into the following sections: theoretical fundamentals of relational databases, logical foundations and databases, data modelling, database design, deductive databases, transaction management and security, concurrency control and distributed databases. The volume reflects the current state of knowledge and is a guide to further development in database theory.
