This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Symposium on Static Analysis, SAS '95, held in Glasgow, UK, in September 1995. Static Analysis is increasingly recognized as a foundation for high-performance implementations and verification systems of high-level programming languages. 22 full revised papers selected from a total of 55 submissions are presented; they address static analysis issues for different programming paradigms; in particular concurrent, constraint, functional, imperative, logic, and object-oriented programming are addressed. In addition there are abstracts or full papers for three invited presentations and two system descriptions.

Every new version of Java is important, but Java 8 is a game changer. Java 8 in Action is a clearly written guide to the new features of Java 8. It begins with a practical introduction to lambdas, using real-world Java code. Next, it covers the new Streams API and shows how you can use it to make collection-based code radically easier to understand and maintain. It also explains other major Java 8 features including default methods, Optional, CompletableFuture, and the new Date and Time API. This book is written for programmers familiar with Java and basic OO programming. -- Provided by publisher

ETAPS 2006 marked the ninth edition of the European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software, an annual federated conference established in 1998 by merging various existing and new conferences. This year featured five main conferences (CC, ESOP, FASE, FOSSACS, TACAS), 18 satellite workshops (including AC-CAT, AVIS, CMCS, COCV, DCC, EAAI, FESCA, FRCSS, GT-VMT, LDTA, MBT, QAPL, SC, SLAP, SPIN, TERMGRAPH, WITS, and WRLA), two tutorials, and seven invited lectures, excluding those specific to satellite events. Over 550 submissions were received across the five conferences, resulting in an overall acceptance rate of 23%, with each conference having acceptance rates below 30%. Congratulations to all authors included in the final program! I encourage other authors to participate in future events and continue submitting their work. The conferences address various aspects of the system development process, including specification, design, implementation, analysis, and improvement, encompassing the languages, methodologies, and tools that support these activities. The focus blends theory with practical motivation while emphasizing soundly based practice, acknowledging that many software design issues are relevant to systems in general, including hardware systems, without exclusivity to software.
