Description
The Handbook of Theoretical Computer Science provides professionals and
students with a comprehensive overview of the main results and developments in this
rapidly evolving field. Volume A covers models of computation, complexity theory,
data structures, and efficient computation in many recognized subdisciplines of
theoretical computer science. Volume B takes up the theory of automata and rewriting
systems, the foundations of modern programming languages, and logics for program
specification and verification, and presents several studies on the theoretic
modeling of advanced information processing.The two volumes contain thirty-seven
chapters, with extensive chapter references and individual tables of contents for
each chapter. There are 5,387 entry subject indexes that include notational symbols,
and a list of contributors and affiliations in each volume.
