    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    This book summarizes work done by the authors under the
    Esprit Tool Use project (1985-1990), at GMD in Karlsruhe and
    at Berlin University of Technology. It provides a
    comprehensive description of the generic development
    language Deva designed by the authors. Much of the research
    reported in this monograph is inspired by the work of Michel
    Sintzoff on formal program development; he contributed an
    enlightening Foreword.
    Deva is essentially a typed functional language with certain
    deduction rules. The difference with ordinary languages is,
    of course, the application domain: the types serve here to
    express propositions such as specifications or programs,
    rather than just data classes. Its practical applicability
    was tested on several non-trivial case studies. The whole
    book is written using the DVWEB system, a WEB for Deva,
    beeing implemented at the Berlin University of Technology.
