This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Workshop on Experimental and Efficient Algorithms, WEA 2006, held in Menorca, Spain, May 2006. The book presents 26 revised full papers together with 3 invited talks. The application areas addressed include most fields applying advanced algorithmic techniques, such as combinatorial optimization, approximation, graph theory, discrete mathematics, scheduling, searching, sorting, string matching, coding, networking, and more.

This book constitutes the strictly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the Second International Workshop on Graphics Recognition, GREC'97, held in Nancy, France, in August 1997. The 34 thoroughly revised full papers presented were carefully selected for inclusion in the book on the basis of a second round of post-workshop reviewing. The book is divided into sections on vectorization and segmentation, symbol recognition, form processing, map processing, engineering drawings, applications and systems, performance evaluation, and a graphics recognition contest.

The main idea behind the series of volumes Advances in Petri Nets is to present to the general computer science community recent results which are the most representative and significant for the development of the area. The papers for the volumes are drawn mainly from the annual International Conferences on Applications and Theory of Petri Nets. Selected papers from the latest conference are independently refereed, and revised and extended as necessary. Some further papers submitted directly to the editor are included. Advances in Petri Nets 1990 covers the Tenth International Conference on Applications and Theory of Petri Nets held in Bonn, Germany, in June 1989. Additional highlights of this volume include a tutorial on refinements of Petri nets by W. Brauer, R. Gold, and W. Vogler, and a tutorial on analysis and synthesis of free choice systems by J. Esparza and M. Silva, both prepared in the framework of the ESPRIT Basic Research Actions Project DEMON.

This volume contains the proceedings of the 13th International Conference onApplication and Theory of Petri Nets, held in Sheffield, England, in June 1992. The aim of the Petri net conferences is to create a forum for discussing progress in the application and theory of Petri nets. Typically, the conferences have 150-200 participants, one third of these coming from industry and the rest from universities and research institutions. The 1992 conference was organized by the School of Computing and Management Sciences at Sheffield City Polytechnic, England. The volume contains twoinvited papers, by G. Balbo and W. Reisig, 18 submitted papers, and seven project papers. The submitted papers and project presentations were selectedby the programme committee and a panel of referees from a large number of submissions.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Application and Theory of Petri Nets, held in Osaka, Japan, in June 1996. The 26 revised full papers included in the book together with three invited presentations were selected from a total of 78 submissions. The book addresses the current theoretical and applicational aspects of the various types of Petri Nets and competently reflects the state of the art in the area.

When you use .NET to create client-and server-side applications, you have to address a new and large set of security issues. ".NET Security¿ shows you what you need to know by covering the different aspects of the .NET security model through detailed discussions about the key namespaces. The authors not only demonstrate how to write .NET code that can create secure systems within the .NET Framework, but also discuss ways that someone may try to break the security model in .NET, and how .NET prevents such intrusions. ¿.NET Security¿ is a tutorial about how to use the .NET security and cryptographic classes as well as a reference for any developer who wants to understand how security is implemented in the .NET Framework. The .NET Framework requires understanding in many new areas such as managed code, permissions, and evidence--and this book covers them all.

He has spent the last several years architecting and developing the following types of applications: Intranet content management, Web-enabled training and testing software, B2B and B2C e-commerce, and Web-based telemetry and logistics. Pete has complimented his VB skills with several other technologies such as: XML, XSL, COM+, IIS, ASP, and, of course, .NET. He also enjoys teaching and presenting on .NET technologies. Pete has a Mechanical Engineering background, receiving his Bachelor of Science from the University of Minnesota. Tom Fischer's career spans a broad range of technologies with some of the most prestigious consulting firms in the Twin Cities. His certifications include the Sun Certified Java Programmer (SCJP), Microsoft Certified Solution Developer (MCSD), and Microsoft Certified Database Administrator (MCDBA). And as a Microsoft Certified Teacher (MCT), Tom also helps teach other developers about the latest Microsoft .NET tools and technologies. Nathan Smith is a consultant with Spherion in Scottsdale, AZ. He holds almost every Microsoft acronym possible (all but MCT) and specializes in the development of and conversion to Web enabled applications. Prior to the first beta release of C#, he focused primarily on Visual Basic development which he's been involved with for approximately six years.

The refereed proceedings of the 9th Annual International Computing and Combinatorics Conference, COCOON 2003, held in Big Sky, MT, USA in July 2003. The 52 revised full papers presented together with 3 invited contributions were carefully reviewed and selected from 114 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on computational geometry, computational biology, computability and complexity theory, graph theory and graph algorithms, automata and Petri net theory, distributed computing, Web-based computing, scheduling, graph drawing, and fixed-parameter complexity theory.

This is the latest in a series of volumes presenting recent results on Petri nets to the general computer science community. The papers are selected and prepared to present results which are the most representative and significant for the development of the area.

This text is based on a simple and fully reactive computational model that allows for intuitive comprehension and logical designs. The principles and techniques presented can be applied to any distributed computing environment (e.g., distributed systems, communication networks, data networks, grid networks, internet, etc.). The text provides a wealth of unique material for learning how to design algorithms and protocols perform tasks efficiently in a distributed computing environment.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 27th IFIP WG 6.1 International Conference on Formal Techniques for Networked and Distributed Systems, FORTE 2007, held in Tallinn, Estonia, in September 2007 co-located with TestCom/FATES 2007.

The 22 revised full papers presented together with 1 invited talk were carefully reviewed and selected from 67 submissions. The papers focus on service oriented computing and architectures using formalized and verified approaches. In addition to the classical protocol specification and verification problems, the issues of composition of protocol functions and of algorithms for distributed systems are addressed. The papers are organized in topical sections on message sequence charts and SDL, concurrency, model programs, theory, verification, model checking, requirements and QoS, as well as components.
