Pascal Fontaine Knihy

Jaký je smysl Evropské unie? Proč a jak vznikla? Jak funguje? Co už udělala pro své občany a jaké problémy řeší v současné době? Může EU i v době globalizace úspěšně konkurovat jiným ekonomickým mocnostem a zachovat si svou sociální úroveň? Jakou roli bude mít Evropa na světové scéně v následujících letech? Kde budou její hranice? A jaká budoucnost čeká euro? To jsou jen některé z otázek, kterými se zabývá Pascal Fontaine, autor populární příručky Evropa ve 12 lekcích.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Symposium on Frontiers of Combining Systems, FroCoS 2013, held in Nancy, France, in September 2013. The 20 revised full papers presented together with 4 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 33 submissions. FroCoS'13 seeks to offer a common forum for research in the general area of combination, modularization and integration of systems, with emphasis on logic-based ones, and of their practical use. Typical topics of interest include following subjects: combinations of logics such as combined predicate, temporal, modal or epistemic logics, combinations and modularity in ontologies, combination of decision, procedures, of satisfiability, procedures and of constraint solving techniques, combinations and modularity in term rewriting, integration of equational and other theories into deductive systems, combination of deduction systems and computer algebra, integration of data structures into constraint logic programming and deduction, and modularizing programs and specifications.
