Logic Program Synthesis and Transformation: 6th International Workshop, LOPSTR'96, Stockholm, Sweden, August 28-30, 1996, Proceedings / Edition 1

by John Gallagher

Overview

This book constitutes the strictly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the Sixth International Workshop on Logic Program Synthesis and Transformation, LOPSTR'96, held on board a ship sailing from Skholm to Helsinki, in August 1996.

The 17 revised full papers were carefully selected from a total of initially 27 submissions. The topics covered range over the areas of synthesis of programs from specifications, verification, transformation, specialization, and analysis of programs, and the use of program schemata in program development.
