Reihe: Lecture Notes in Computer Science

This volume contains the proceedings of the Eleventh
Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and
Theoretical Computer Science held in New Dehli, India
December 17-19, 1991. Three invited papers and 25
contributed papers selected from 78 submissions by authors
from many different countries reflect the current research
concerns of the theoreticalcomputer science community. The
topics covered include:

-Algorithms (sequential, parallel and geometric)
-Automata theory
-Functional programming
-Learning
-Logic of programs
-Semantics
-Structural complexity theory
-Type theory.
