Theoretical Aspects of Computing - ICTAC 2005: Second International Colloquium, Hanoi, Vietnam, October 17-21, 2005, Proceedings

by Dang Van Hung (Editor), Martin Wirsing (Editor)

Overview

This volume contains the proceedings of ICTAC 2005, the second ICTAC, International Colloquium on Theoretical Aspects of Computing. ICTAC 2005 took place in Hanoi, Vietnam, October 17–21, 2005. ICTAC was founded by the International Institute for Software Technology of the United Nations University (UNU-IIST) to serve as a forum for practiti- ers, lecturers and researchers from academia, industry and government who are interested in theoretical aspects of computing and rigorous approaches to so- ware engineering. The colloquium is aimed particularly, but not exclusively, at participants from developing countries. We believe that this will help developing countries to strengthen their research, teaching and development in computer science and engineering, improve the links between developing countries and developed countries, and establish collaboration in research and education. By providing avenue for the discussion of common problems and their solutions, and for the exchange of experiences and ideas, this colloquium supports research and development in computer science and software technology. ICTAC is attracting more and more attention from more and more countries.
