Relational and Algebraic Methods in Computer Science

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Relational and Algebraic Methods in Computer Science, RAMiCS 2014 held in Marienstatt, Germany, in April/May 2014.
The 25 revised full papers presented were carefully selected from 37 submissions. The papers are structured in specific fields on concurrent Kleene algebras and related formalisms, reasoning about computations and programs, heterogeneous and categorical approaches, applications of relational and algebraic methods and developments related to modal logics and lattices.
