Riassunto

This volume constitutes the proceedings of the 19th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Theoretical Computer Science, MFCS '94, held in Kosice, Slovakia in August 1994.
MFCS '94 brought together specialists in theoretical fields of computer science from various countries in order to stimulate mathematical research in theoretical computer science. Besides 12 papers based on invited talks by renowned experts, the book contains 42 research contributions selected from a total of 112 submissions. All areas of theoretical computer science are presented, some from a particular mathematical point of view.
