This book presents the proceedings of the 12th Annual Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 95), held in Munich, Germany in March 1995. Besides three invited talks, the book contains revised versions of 53 research papers selected from a total of 180 submissions. The contributions address all current aspects of theoretical computer science; they are organized in sections on complexity theory, automata theory, algorithms, logic, theory of parallel computing, communication theory, graph theory and databases, and computational geometry.

This volume presents the proceedings of the Sixth International Joint Conference on the Theory and Practice of Software Engineering, TAPSOFT '95, held in Aarhus, Denmark in May 1995. TAPSOFT '95 celebrates the 10th anniversary of this conference series started in Berlin in 1985 to bring together theoretical computer scientists and software engineers (researchers and practitioners) with a view to discussing how formal methods can usefully be applied in software development. The volume contains seven invited papers, among them one by Vaugham Pratt on the recently revealed bug in the Pentium chip, and 44 revised full papers selected from a total of 147 submissions. In addition the TAPSOFT '95 proceedings contains 10 tool descriptions.

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 volume constitutes the proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Computer Aided Verification, CAV '95, held in Liège, Belgium in July 1995. The book contains the 31 refereed full research papers selected for presentation at CAV '95 as well as abstracts or full papers of the three invited presentations. Originally oriented towards finite-state concurrent systems, CAV now covers all styles of verification approaches and a variety of application areas. The papers included range from theoretical issues to concrete applications with a certain emphasis on verification tools and the algorithms and techniques needed for their implementations. Beyond finite-state systems, real-time systems and hybrid systems are an important part of the conference.

This book contains revised versions of papers invited for presentation at the International Workshop on Logic and Computational Complexity, LCC '94, held in Indianapolis, IN in October 1994. The synergy between logic and computational complexity has gained importance and vigor in recent years, cutting across many areas. The 25 revised full papers in this book contributed by internationally outstanding researchers document the state-of-the-art in this interdisciplinary field of growing interest; they are presented in sections on foundational issues, applicative and proof-theoretic complexity, complexity of proofs, computational complexity of functionals, complexity and model theory, and finite model theory.

This book presents the proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Fundamentals of Computation Theory, FCT '95, held in Dresden, Germany in August 1995. The volume contains five invited lectures and 32 revised papers carefully selected for presentation at FCT '95. A broad spectrum of theoretical computer science is covered; among topics addressed are algorithms and data structures, automata and formal languages, categories and types, computability and complexity, computational logics, computational geometry, systems specification, learning theory, parallelism and concurrency, rewriting and high-level replacement systems, and semantics.

The refereed proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Computer Aided Verification, CAV 2003, held in Boulder, CO, USA in July 2003. The 32 revised full papers and 9 tool papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 102 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on bounded model checking; symbolic model checking; games, trees, and counters; tools; abstraction; dense time; infinite state systems; applications; theorem proving; automata-based verification; invariants; and explicit model checking.
