Synopsis

This work, a tribute to renowned researcher Robert Paige, is a collection of revised papers published in his honor in the Higher-Order and Symbolic Computation Journal in 2003 and 2005.

Among them there are two key papers: a retrospective view of his research lines, and a proposal for future studies in the area of the automatic program derivation.

The book also includes some papers by members of the IFIP Working Group 2.1 of which Bob was an active member.

All of the papers are related to the research interests of Dr Paige, who died in 1999, and, in particular, to the transformational development of programs and their algorithmic derivation from formal specifications.

His colleagues, who include Olivier Danvy of the University of Aarhus in Denmark, and Alberto Pettorossi of the University of Rome 'Tor Vergata' in Italy, believe the book provides a renewed stimulus for continuing and deepening Dr Paige's research vision.

Prof. Olivier Danvy is editor in chief of the Higher Order for Symbolic Computation journal.
