Description

This book describes a wide variety of speculations by many authors about the consequences for humanity of coming into contact with extraterrestrial intelligence. The assumptions underlying those speculations are examined, and some conclusions are drawn.

Description

For more than a decade, Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science Conferences have been providing an annual academic computerscience forum for the presentation of new results in the topics of current research in India and abroad. This year, there was a total of 125 papers from 14 countries. Each paper was reviewed by at least three reviewers; based on these reviews, the programme committee selected 28 papers at a meeting held in July 1992 at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Bombay. The selected papers are included in this volume, together with three invited papers: "Games and full completeness for multiplicative linear logic" by S. Abramsky, "Recent developments inalgorithms for the maximum-flow problem" by K. Melhorn, and "System specification and refinement in temporal logic" by A. Pnueli.
