ALCOP VI, 2015: Algebra and Coalgebra meet Proof Theory

Workshop
Dates: 6 - 8 May 2015 (2.7 days)
Venue: Faculty of Technology, Policy and Management, Delft University of Technology. Jaffalaan 5, 2628 BX Delft.
Room: Classroom H, first floor, turn right twice after the stairs.

For directions, see here.

Aims and Scope
The ALCOP meetings bring together experts in algebraic logic, coalgebraic logic and proof theory with the aim of sharing new results and developing mutually beneficial relationships between these fields. As a special theme, ALCOP 2015 will explore connections with substructural logics and their applications in computer science, social science and AI (e.g., logic programming, databases, knowledge representation).

Attendance is free of cost, but talks are by invitation only.
For registration, see below.
