    Computability in Europe 2008: Logic and Theory of Algorithms

EXTENDED SUBMISSION DEADLINE:
             January 14th, 2008

CiE 2008 is the fourth in a series of conferences organised by CiE
(Computability in Europe), a European network of mathematicians,
logicians, computer scientists, philosophers, physicists and
others interested in new developments in computability and their
underlying significance for the real world. Previous meetings took
place in Amsterdam (2005), Swansea (2006) and Siena (2007).

CiE 2008 aims at bridging the gap from the logical methods of 
mathematical and meta-mathematical flavour to the applied and 
industrial questions that are involved in devising and choosing 
the right algorithms and analysing their effectiveness and efficiency.


TUTORIALS will be given by:
John V. Tucker (Swansea)
Moshe Y. Vardi (Houston, TX)

PLENARY SPEAKERS will include:
Keith Devlin (Stanford, CA)
Rosalie Iemhoff (Utrecht)
Antonina Kolokolova (Vancouver, BC)
Janos Makowsky (Haifa)
Dag Normann (Oslo)
Prakash Panangaden (Montreal, QC)
Christos Papadimitriou (Berkeley, CA)
Jan van Leeuwen (Utrecht) & Jiri Wiedermann (Prague)

invite papers that build bridges between different parts of 
the research community.


The CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS will be published by LNCS, 
Springer-Verlag.  There will also be journal special issues, 
collecting invited contributions related to the conference.  Special 
issues will be published in the journals "Theory of Computing 
Systems", the "Archive for Mathematical Logic", and the "Journal of 
Algorithms". See
