'2001 - CALL FOR PAPERS
Fixed Points in Computer Science

http://www.dsi.uniroma1.it/~labella/FICS.html
A Satellite Workshop to PLI'2001
Principles, Logics and Implementations of High-Level Programming Languages
September 3-7, 2001, Florence, Italy
http://music.dsi.unifi.it/pli01
Aim:
Fixed points play a fundamental role in several areas of computer
science and logic by justifying induction and recursive definitions.
The construction and properties of fixed points have been investigated
in many different frameworks. The aim of the workshop is to provide a
forum for researchers to present their results to those members of the
computer science and logic communities who study or apply the
fixed point operation in the different fields and formalisms.
Previous workshops where held in 1998 in Brno and in 2000 in Paris.
Topics:
Construction and reasoning about properties
of fixed points, categorical, metric and ordered fixed point
models, continuous algebras, relation algebras,
fixed points in process algebras and process calculi,
regular algebras of finitary and infinitary languages,
formal power series, tree automata and tree languages,
infinite trees, the mu-calculus and other programming logics,
fixed points in relation to dataflow and circuits,
fixed points and the lambda calculus, fixed points in logic
programming and data bases.
