Logical Foundations of Computer Science - International Symposium, LFCS 2009, Deerfield Beach, FL, USA, January 3-6, 2009, Proceedings (Paperback, 2009 ed.)

The Symposium on Logical Foundations of Computer Science series provides a forum for the fast-growing body of work in the logical foundations of computer science, e.g., those areas of fundamental theoretical logic related to computer science. The LFCS series began with "Logic at Botik," Pereslavl-Zalessky,1989, which was co-organized by Albert R. Meyer (MIT) and Michael Taitslin (Tver). After that, organization passed to Anil Nerode. Currently LFCS is governed by a Steering Committee consisting of Anil Nerode (General Chair), Stephen Cook, Dirk van Dalen, Yuri Matiyasevich, John McCarthy, J. Alan Robinson, Gerald Sacks, and Dana Scott. The 2009 Symposium on Logical Foundations of Computer Science (LFCS 2009) took place in Howard Johnson Plaza Resort, Deer?eld Beach, Florida, USA, during January 3-6. This volume contains the extended abstracts of talks selected by the Program Committee for presentation at LFCS 2009. The scope of the symposium is broad and contains constructive mathematics and type theory; automata and automatic structures; computability and r- domness; logical foundations of programming; logical aspects of computational complexity; logic programmingand constraints;automated deduction and int- active theorem proving; logical methods in protocol and program veri?cation; logical methods in program speci?cation and extraction; domain theory l- ics; logical foundations of database theory; equational logic and term rewriting; lambda andcombinatorycalculi;categoricallogicandtopologicalsemantics;l- ear logic; epistemic and temporal logics; intelligent and multiple agent system logics; logics of proof and justi?cation; nonmonotonic reasoning; logic in game theory and social software; logic of hybrid systems; distributed system logics;
