The study of information-based actions and processes has been a
vibrant - terface between logic and computer science for several
decades now. Indeed, several natural perspectives come together
here. On the one hand, logical s- tems may be used to describe the
dynamics of arbitrary computational p- cesses as in the many
sophisticated process logics available today. But also, key logical
notions such as model checking or proof search are themselves
informational processes involving agents with goals. The interplay
between these descriptive and dynamic aspects shows even in our
ordinary language. A word like proof hdenotes both a static
certificate of truth, and an activity which humans or machines
engage in. Increasing our understanding of l- ics of this sort
tells us something about computer science, and about cognitive
actions in general. The individual chapters of this book show the
state of the art in current - vestigations of process calculi such
as linear logic, and with mainly two major paradigms at work,
namely, linear logic and modal logic. These techniques are applied
to the title themes of concurrency and synchronisation, but there
are also many repercussions for topics such as the geometry of
proofs, categorial semantics, and logics of graphs. Viewed -
gether, the chapters also offer exciting glimpses of future
integration, as the reader moves back and forth through the book."
