In software engineering there is a growing need for formalization
as a basis for developing powerful computer assisted methods. This
volume contains seven extensive lectures prepared for a series of
IFIP seminars on the Formal Description of Programming Concepts.
The authors are experts in their fields and have contributed
substantially to the state of the art in numerous publications. The
lectures cover a wide range in the theoretical foundations of
programming and give an up-to-date account of the semantic models
and the related tools which have been developed in order to allow a
rigorous discussion of the problems met in the construction of
correct programs. In particular, methods for the specification and
transformation of programs are considered in detail. One lecture is
devoted to the formalization of concurrency and distributed systems
and reflects their great importance in programming. Further topics
are the verification of programs and the use of sophisticated type
systems in programming. This compendium on the theoretical
foundations of programming is also suitable as a textbook for
special seminars on different aspects of this broad subject.
