Preface
This volume collects papers presented at the 8th International Symposium on Frontiers of Combining Systems (FroCoS 2011), held October 5–7, 2011 in Saarbr¨ ucken, Germany. Previous FroCoS meetings were organized in Munich (1996), Amsterdam (1998), Nancy (2000), Santa Margherita Ligure (2002), Vienna (2005), Liverpool (2007) and Trento (2009). In 2004, 2006, 2008 and 2010 FroCoS joined IJCAR, the International Joint Conference on Automated Reasoning. Like its predecessors, FroCoS 2011 offered a common forum for the presentation and discussion of research in the general area of combination, modularization and integration of systems, with emphasis on logic-based systems and their applications. This research touches on many areas of computer science such as computational logic, program development and verification, artificial intelligence, automated reasoning, constraint solving, declarative programming, and symbolic
