MPC 2000 Fifth International Conference on Mathematics of Program Construction

July 3-5, 2000

Ponte de Lima, Portugal

Mathematics

Host: Departamento de Informática, University of Minho

Description:
This conference aims to promote the development of mathematical principles and techniques that are demonstrably useful and usable in the process of constructing computer programs (whether implemented in hardware or software).

The focus of the conference is on techniques that combine precision with concision, enabling programs to be constructed by formal calculation . Within this theme, the scope of the conference is very diverse. We welcome contributions to programming methodology (for example, formal methods for program specification and transformation), to programming paradigms (for example, generic programming techniques and type systems ) and to language design (for example, programming calculi and programming language semantics ).

Theoretical contributions are welcome provided their relevance to program construction is evident; discussion of applications is welcome provided the mathematical basis is evident.

Speakers: Cliff Jones (Harlequin Ltd, UK), Mark Jones (Oregon, USA), Jan Rutten (CWI, The Netherlands)
