Summer School on Semantics and Logic of Computation
A Newton Institute Summer School
SEMANTICS AND LOGICS OF COMPUTATION
25--29 September 1995
Newton Institute, Cambridge, UK
in collaboration with the
ESPRIT CLICS-II project
Call for Registration
The Summer School on Semantics and Logics of Computation is being held
as part of a six-month research programme on Semantics of Computation
at the Isaac Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences, a new
international research centre in Cambridge UK. The Summer School is
sponsored by the CEC ESPRIT research project "Categorical Logic in
Computer Science, II" (CLICS-II).
The aim is to present a number of modern developments in semantics and
logics of computation in a way that is accessible to graduate-level
students. Registrations from postgraduate students will be given
priority, but applications by interested academics and industrialists
are also welcomed. The planned courses include:
Samson Abramsky (Imperial) on
"Semantics of interaction"
Thierry Coquand (Chalmers) on
"Computational content of classical logic"
Martin Hofmann (Edinburgh) on
"Dependent type theory: syntax, semantics, and applications"
Martin Hyland (Cambridge) on
"Game Semantics"
Eugenio Moggi (Genova) on
"Computational types and applications"
Mogens Nielsen & Glynn Winskel (Aarhus)
"Models for concurrency"
Andrew Pitts (Cambridge)
"Operationally-based theories for proving program properties"
ORGANIZERS:
For CLICS-II: Peter Dybjer (Chalmers)

For the NIMS Semantics of Andrew Pitts (Cambridge)
Computation Programme: ap@cl.cam.ac.uk
LOCATION:
The workshop will take place in the Newton Institute's
purpose-designed building, in a pleasant area in the west of
Cambridge, about one mile from the centre of the City. Accommodation
for participants will be provided next door to the Newton Institute
in the study bedrooms of Girton College's Wolfson Court. The
accommodation will be available from the evening of Sunday 24
September until the morning of Saturday 30 September.
