This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 19th
International Workshop on Recent Trends in Algebraic Development Techniques WADT 2008 held in
Pisa Italy on June 13-16 2008. The 18 revised full papers presented together with 3 invited
talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 33 presentations at the workshop. The papers
focus on the algebraic approaches to the specification and development of systems and address
topics such as formal methods for system development specification languages and methods
systems and techniques for reasoning about specifications specification development systems
methods and techniques for concurrent distributed and mobile systems and algebraic and
co-algebraic foundations.
