CAUTION: The Sender of this email is not from within Dalhousie. (Apologies for multiple copies of this announcement. Please circulate.) ================================================================== CALL FOR PARTICIPATION Fifth International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2020) June 29 – July 5, 2020, Paris, France http://fscd2020.org/ <http://fscd2020.org/> The 2020 edition of FSCD and of its satellite workshops will be held online. Participation will be free, but a preregistration will be required to join the video meetings of the events. FSCD covers all aspects of formal structures for computation and deduction from theoretical foundations to applications. Building on two communities, RTA (Rewriting Techniques and Applications) and TLCA (Typed Lambda Calculi and Applications), FSCD embraces their core topics and broadens their scope to closely related areas in logics, models of computation (e.g. quantum computing, probabilistic computing, homotopy type theory), semantics and verification in new challenging areas (e.g. blockchain protocols or deep learning algorithms).
