The Second Colloquium on Automata, Languages and Programming is the successor of a similar Colloquium organized by IRIA in Paris, July 3-7, 1972. The present Colloquium which takes place at the Unl- versity of Saarbrucken from July 29th to August 2nd, 1974, is spon sored by the Gesellschaft fur. Informatik and organized in cooperation wlth the Special Interest Group on Automata and Computability Theory (SIGACT) and with the European Association for Theoretical Computer Science (EATCS). As its predecessor the present Colloquium is devoted to the theo retical bases of computer science. This volume contains the text of the different lectures of the Colloquium whlch have been selected by the Program Committee out of about 130 submitted papers. About one third of the papers of this volume is concerned with formal language theory, one other third with the theory of computation and the rest with complexity theory, automata theory, programming languages, etc.

Theory of Machines and Computations consists of papers presented at the International Symposium on the Theory of Machines and Computations, held at Technion-Israel Institute of Technology in Haifa, Israel, in August 1971. This book is organized into five main sections—computability theory, formal and stochastic languages, finite automata, fault-detection experiments, and switching theory. In these sections, this compilation specifically discusses the computationally complex and pseudo-random zero-one valued functions and rate of convergence of local iterative schemes. The simple syntactic operators on full semiAFLs, whirl decomposition of stochastic systems, and existence of a periodic analogue of a finite automaton are also elaborated. This text likewise covers the theorems on additive automata, fault location in iterative logic arrays, and tree-threshold-synthesis of ternary functions. This publication is useful to practitioners and specialists interested in the theory of machines and computations.

What are the psychological processes involved in comprehending sentences? How do we process the structure of sentences and how do we understand their meaning? Do children, bilinguals and people with language impairments process sentences in the same way as healthy monolingual adults? These are just some of the many questions that sentence processing researchers have tried to answer by conducting ever more sophisticated experiments, making this one of the most productive and exciting areas in experimental language research in recent years. This book is the first to provide a comprehensive, state-of-the-art overview of this important field. It contains 10 chapters written by world-leading experts, which discuss influential theories of sentence processing and important experimental evidence, with a focus on recent developments in the area. The chapters also analyse research that has investigated how people process the structure and meaning of sentences, and how sentences are understood within their context. This comprehensive and authoritative work will appeal to students and researchers in the field of sentence processing, as well anyone with an interest in psychology and linguistics.
