For some years, specification of software and hardware systems has been
influenced not only by algebraic methods but also by new developments in
logic. These new developments in logic are partly based on the use
of algorithmic techniques in deduction and proving methods, but are alsodue to new theoretical advances, to a great extent stimulated by computer
science, which have led to new types of logic and new logical calculi. The new techniques, methods and tools from logic, combined with
algebra-based ones, offer very powerful and useful tools for the
computer scientist, which may soon become practical for commercial use, where, in particular, more powerful specification tools are needed for
concurrent and distributed systems. This volume contains papers based on
lectures by leading researchers which were originally given at an
international summer school held in Marktoberdorf in 1991. The papers
aim to give a foundation for combining logic and algebra for
the purposes of specification under the aspects of automated deduction, proving techniques, concurrency and logic, abstract data types and
operational semantics, and constructive methods.
