Riassunto

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science, FSTTCS'97. The 18 revised full papers presented were selected from a total of 68 submissions. Also included are five invited papers by Ed Clarke, Deepak Kapur, Madhu Sudan, Vijaya Ramachandran, and Moshe Vardi. Among the topics addressed are concurrency, Petri nets, graph computations, program verification, model checking, recursion theory, rewriting, and error-correcting codes.
