Recent Trends in Data Type Specification

7th Workshop on Specification of Abstract Data Types Wusterhausen/Dosse, Germany, April 17-20, 1990 Proceedings (Lecture Notes in Computer Science)

The algebraic specification of abstract data types is now a well established research topic in computer science. This area influences both applications and theoretical foundations of methodologies which support the design and formal development of reliable software. The Seventh Workshop on Specification of Abstract Data Types took place in Wusterhausen/Dosse, April 17-20, 1990, and was organized in cooperation with the ESPRIT Basic Research Working Group COMPASS. The main topics covered by the workshop were: - Modularization - Object orientation - Higher-order types and dependent types - Inductive completion - Algebraic high-level nets.
