Functional and Logic Programming 7th International Symposium, FLOPS 2004, Nara, Japan, April 7-9, 2004, Proceedings

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Symposium on Functional and Logic Programming, FLOPS 2004, held in Nara, Japan, in April 2004.
The 18 revised full papers presented together with 3 invited contributions were carefully reviewed and selected from 55 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on logic and functional-logic programming, applications, program analysis, rewriting, types and modules, logic and semantics, and functional programming.
