Recent Trends in Data Type Specification: 7th Workshop on Specification of Abstract Data Types, Wusterhausen/Dosse, Germany, April 17-20, 1990. Proceedings

The algebraic specification of abstract data types is now a

well establishedresearch topic in computer science. This

area influences both applications and theoretical

foundations of methodologies which support the design and

formal development of reliable software.

The Seventh Workshop on Specification of Abstract Data Types

took place in Wusterhausen/Dosse, April17-20, 1990, and was

organized in cooperation with the ESPRIT Basic Research

Working Group COMPASS. The main topics covered by the

workshop were:

- Modularization

- Object orientation

- Higher-order types anddependent types

- Inductive completion

- Algebraic high-level nets.
