Sommario/riassunto

""The year 1816 found America on the cusp of political, social,cultural, and economic modernity. Celebrating its fortieth year of independence, the country's sense of self was maturing. Americans, who had emerged from the War of 1812 with their political systemsintact, embraced new opportunities. For the first time, citizens viewed themselves not as members of a loose coalition of states but as part of a larger union. This optimism was colored, however, by bizarre weather. Periods of extreme cold and severe drought swept the northern states and the upper south throughout 1816, which was someti

Sommario/riassunto

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Mathematics of Program Construction, MPC 2015, held in Königswinter, Germany, in June/July 2015. The 15 revised full papers presented together with two invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 20 submissions. The papers are about mathematical methods and tools put to use in program construction. They range from algorithmics to support for program



construction in programming languages and systems. Some typical areas are type systems, program analysis and transformation, programming-language semantics, security, and program logics.
