This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 24th Seminar on Current Trends in Theory and Practice of Informatics, SOFSEM'97, held in Milovy, Czech Republic, in November 1997. SOFSEM is special in being a mix of a winter school, an international conference, and an advanced workshop meeting the demand for ongoing education in the area of computer science. The volume presents 22 invited contributions by leading experts together with 24 revised contributed papers selected from 63 submissions. The invited presentations are organized in topical sections on foundations, distributed and parallel computing, software engineering and methodology, and databases and information systems.
This year the SOFSEM conference is coming back to Milovy in Moravia to th be held for the 26 time. Although born as a local Czechoslovak event 25 years ago SOFSEM did not miss the opportunity oe red in 1989 by the newly found freedom in our part of Europe and has evolved into a full-?edged international conference. For all the changes, however, it has kept its generalist and mul- disciplinarycharacter.Thetracksofinvitedtalks,rangingfromTrendsinTheory to Software and Information Engineering, attest to this. Apart from the topics mentioned above, SOFSEM’99 oer s invited talks exploring core technologies, talks tracing the path from data to knowledge, and those describing a wide variety of applications. TherichcollectionofinvitedtalkspresentsonetraditionalfacetofSOFSEM: that of a winter school, in which IT researchers and professionals get an opp- tunity to see more of the large pasture of today’s computing than just their favourite grazing corner. To facilitate this purpose the prominent researchers delivering invited talks usually start with a broad overview of the state of the art in a wider area and then gradually focus on their particular subject.
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 25th Seminar on Current Trends in Theory and Practice of Informatics, SOFSEM'98, held in Jasna, Slovakia, in November 1998. The volume presents 19 invited survey articles by internationally well-known authorities together with 18 revised full research papers carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the book. The areas covered include history of models of computation, algorithms, formal methods, practical aspects of software engineering, database systems, parallel and distributed systems, electronic commerce, and electronic documents and digital libraries.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 28th Conference on Current Trends in Theory and Practice of Informatics, SOFSEM 2001, held in Piestany, Slovak Republic, in November/December 2001. Teh volume presents 12 invited lectures and one keynote paper by leading researchers together with 18 revised full research papers selected from 46 submissions. The papers span the whole range of informatics with emphasis on trends in informatics, enabling technologies for global computing, and practical systems engineering.
This book coherently documents the results and experiences of a major digital library pilot effort, the MeDoc project (Multimedia Electronic Documents). This two-year project was initiated by the German Informatics Society (GI) and involved authors, publishers, librarians, and computer science departments. The prototype distributed digital library system developed during the initiative was operated in a nationwide trial for several months. The book presents the technical and operational results achieved during the project as well as input from foreign digital library activities. Besides professionals active in the area of digital library research and design, this book addresses librarians and others engaged in scientific publishing.
This book constitutes the strictly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the First International Workshop on Information Security, ISW'97, held in Tatsunokuchi, Ishikawa, Japan, in September 1997. The volume presents six invited surveys together with 25 thoroughly revised full papers selected from 39 submissions. Among the topics covered are public-key cryptosystems, cryptoanalysis, digital signatures, hardware/software implementation, key management, key sharing, security management, electronic commerce, and quantum cryptology.

This book constitutes the strictly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 5th International Symposium on Graph Drawing, GD'97, held in Rome, Italy, in September 1997. The 33 revised full papers and 10 systems demonstrations presented were selected from 80 submissions. The topics covered include planarity, crossing theory, three dimensional representations, orthogonal representations, clustering and labeling problems, packing problems, general methodologies, and systems and applications.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 1998 International Conference on the Theory and Application of Cryptographic Techniques, EUROCRYPT '98, held in Espoo, Finland, in May/June 1998. The book presents 44 revised full papers selected from a total of 161 submissions. The papers are organized in sections on distributed cryptography, complexity, cryptanalysis of block ciphers, computational algorithms, paradigms for symmetric systems, public key cryptosystems, multi-party computation, digital signatures, Boolean functions, combinatorial design and analysis, elliptic curve systems, and electronic commerce and payment.
This book presents the refereed proceedings of the Second International B Conference, B'98, held in Montpellier, France, in April 1998. The book presents 15 revised full papers selected from 29 submissions as well as four invited contributions. The B method is enjoying rapidly increasing popularity for the specification and design of software. The book covers all aspects of the B technology, including introductory and methodological issues, theoretical investigations and industrial applications, B extension proposals and support tools, as well as comparisons or integration with other formal methods for software development.
