Preface LOPSTR’98 (see http://www.csd.uu.se/∼pierref/lopstr98/) was the 8th edition of the LOPSTR workshop series (see http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/∼kungkiu/lopstr/). In order to reflect the current emphasis on computational logic, the series was renamed Logic-based Program Synthesis and Transformation, as opposed to the former Logic Program Synthesis and Transformation. This means that papers on any computational-logic-based techniques, languages, and tools for the interactive or automated development of any kinds of programs were now solicited. There was also strong encouragement to submit papers discussing programming-in-the-large issues or practical applications. The selection process ran in three phases. First, based on the submitted 36 extended abstracts, the programme committee invited 27 author teams to present their research at the workshop; pre-workshop proceedings with the accepted abstracts were available as a technical report (see ftp://ftp.cs.man.ac.uk/pub/TR/ UMCS-98-6-1.html). The revised and extended scope triggered abstracts from all continents, including 50% from outside the “usual geographic sphere of influence” of LOPSTR. Also,
