The main goal of the conference was to give an overview of research directions that are decisive for growth in the major areas of research activities in system informatics. The conference was held to honor the 70th anniversary of Ershov's closest colleague, the late Prof. Igor Pottosin (1933-2001), and his outstanding cont- bution towards advancing informatics. The ?rst four Andrei Ershov conferences were held in May 1991, June 1996, July 1999, and July 2001, and they proved to be signi'cant international events.
