Implementation and Application of Automata

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 26th International Conference on Implementation and Application of Automata, CIAA 2022, held in Rouen, France in June/ July 2022. The 16 regular papers presented together with 3 invited lectures in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 26 submissions. The topics of the papers covering various fields in the application, implementation, and theory of automata and related structures.
