Automata, Languages and Programming

The two-volume set LNCS 4051 and LNCS 4052 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 33rd International Colloquium on Automata, Languages and Programming, ICALP 2006, held in Venice, Italy, July 2006. In all, these volumes present more 100 papers and lectures. Volume II (4052) presents 2 invited papers and 2 additional conference tracks with 24 papers each, focusing on algorithms, automata, complexity and games as well as on security and cryptography foundation.
