Riassunto

This volume contains the final versions of a collection of papers presented at the Annual Conference of the European Association for Computer Science Logic, CSL '93, held at Swansea, UK in September 1993.
The 21 full papers included were selected from a total of 62 submissions and essentially contribute to the whole area of computer science logic research. They are devoted to such topics as set constraints, lambda calculi, process algebras, program semantics, intuitionistic logics, fixed-point logics, the equivalence problem, Horn clauses, quantifiers, and proof tranformations.
