CiE 2014: Language, Life, Limits

IMPORTANT DATES:

Submission Deadline for LNCS: 10 January 2014
Notification of authors: 3 March 2014
Deadline for final revisions: 31 March 2014


CiE 2014 is the tenth conference organized by CiE (Computability in
Europe), a European association 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 have taken place in Amsterdam (2005),
Swansea (2006), Siena (2007), Athens (2008), Heidelberg (2009), Ponte
Dalgada (2010), Sofia (2011), Cambridge (2012), and Milan (2013).

The motto of CiE 2014 "Language, Life, Limits" intends to put a special
focus on relations between computational linguistics, natural and
biological computing, and more traditional fields of computability theory.

This is to be understood in its broadest sense including computational
aspects of problems in linguistics, studying models of computation and
algorithms inspired by physical and biological approaches as well as
exhibiting limits (and non-limits) of computability when considering
different models of computation arising from such approaches.

As with previous CiE conferences the allover glueing perspective is to
strengthen the mutual benefits of analyzing traditional and new
computational paradigms in their corresponding frameworks both with
respect to practical applications and a deeper theoretical understanding.
