![]() CTCS'04 is the tenth conference on Category Theory and Computer Science. The purpose of this conference series is the advancement of the foundations of computing, using the tools of category theory. While the emphasis is on applications of category theory, it is recognized that the area is highly interdisciplinary. Category theory, after having played a major role in the development of mathematics, e.g. in algebraic geometry, has been widely applied by logicians to obtain concise interpretations of many logical concepts. On the other hand, links between logic and computer science have been developed now for over twenty years, notably via the Curry-Howard isomorphism, which identifies programs with proofs. Together, the triangle category theory-logic-computation presents a rich world of interconnections. It is the primary purpose of the CTCS conference series to explore these interconnections. Conference proceedings will appear in Electronic Notes in Theoretical Computer Science. Paper copies of the proceedings will be available to participants at the conference. Summer SchoolInspired by the success of the graduate student preconference of CTCS'02 in Ottawa, the CTCS of this year will have a similar event: A three day summer school, which is designed to prepare students - both graduates and advanced undergraduates, with basic knowledge of category theory - to participate in the conference. The summer school will take place from August 9-11. The summer school is supported by the FIRST Graduate School.
WorkshopWorkshop ProgrammeIn between the CTCS'04 Graduate Student Summer School and the CTCS'04 Conference there will be a free, half-day workshop on Categorical Methods in Concurrency, Interaction and Mobility (CMCIM 2004). The workshop has previously been held in connection with CONCUR 2002 (Brno) and CONCUR 2003 (Marseille). More information can be found on the CMCIM 2004 workshop homepage. Please register before July 1st by sending an email to hilde@itu.dk
CTCS '04 Social Event (new)Friday afternoon we will have a nice sightseeing tour on the canals. (Hopefully the sun will be shining, however, you may bring an umbrella just in case....). The tour will end by the Royal Library (The Black Diamond) where we have a buffet at the restaurant Søren K.
