About this ebook
In recent years, IT application scenarios have evolved in very innovative ways. Highly distributed networks have now become a common platform for large-scale distributed programming, high bandwidth communications are inexpensive and widespread, and most of our work tools are equipped with processors enabling us to perform a multitude of tasks. In addition, mobile computing (referring specifically to wireless devices and, more broadly, to dynamically configured systems) has made it possible to exploit interaction in novel ways.
To harness the flexibility and power of these rapidly evolving, interactive systems, there is need of radically new foundational ideas and principles; there is need to develop the theoretical foundations required to design these systems and to cope with the many complex issues involved in their construction; and there is need to develop effective principles for building and analyzing such systems.
Reflecting the diverse and wide spectrum of topics and interests within the theoretical computer science community, Foundations of Information Technology in the Era of Network and Mobile Computing is presented in two distinct but interrelated tracks:

-Algorithms, Complexity and Models of Computation;
-Logic, Semantics, Specification and Verification.
