- AMAST Series in Computing
-
- Aim and Scope
- -------------
-
- Recent progress in the area of using algebraic methodology for the
- development of software technology justifies a new series in
- computing. The volumes published in this series will contain
- comprehensive presentations of algebraic methods used for software
- development that are both theoretically well founded and efficiently
- implemented. The goal of these volumes will be to provide
- comprehensive mathematical frameworks for software design and
- implementation, as an alternative to the current ad hoc trends. The
- prerequisite for the volumes published in this series is that they are
- to contain both a mathematically-precise (algebraic) theory and its
- methodological application to software development, demonstrated by an
- implemented system.
-
- The readership of this series includes those working in theoretical
- computer science as well as those who are actually developing computer
- products. Each volume will be dedicated to a field of interest where
- the use of the algebraic methodology provides a breakthrough and which
- is sufficiently developed to have a real value for researchers,
- students, and engineers, actually working in software design and
- development.

- We are seeking single or multi author monographs in the
- area of applying algebraic (mathematical) methodology to the
- development of software technology, as specified by the aim and scope
- of this series.
-
- To submit a monograph for publication in this series, identify the
- member of the above editorial board closest to the area of interest
- and send him a proposal which consists of the following documents:
-
- (1) Title of the monograph and a short presentation of the material
- it will cover.
-
- (2) A list of contents showing the chapters covered in the monograph
- and their authors.
-
- (3) A specification of the software accompanying the monograph, if any.
-
- (4) A production plan showing the times at which material can be ready.
-
- (5) A marketing plan showing who can be expected to buy the book.
-
- In case of uncertainty, send the proposal to the Managing Editor.
