Preface

This volume contains selected papers from WADT 2006, the 18th International Workshop on Algebraic Development Techniques. Like its predecessors, WADT 2006 focussed on the algebraic approach to the specification and development of systems, an area that was born around the algebraic specification of abstract data types and encompasses today the formal design of software systems, new specification frameworks and a wide range of application areas. WADT 2006 took place at Chateau Flor´eal, La-Roche
