Dear Colleagues, This is the final call for papers for MFPS XXXII. The deadline for submitting papers is March 3, 2106. Details contained below. Thanks, Mike Mislove ======================================================================= The 32nd Conference on the Mathematical Foundations of Programming Semantics (MFPS XXXII) will take place on the campus of the Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, USA, between 23 and 26 May 2016. MFPS conferences are dedicated to the areas of mathematics, logic, and computer science that are related to models of computation in general, and to semantics of programming languages in particular. This is a forum where researchers in mathematics and computer science can meet and exchange ideas. The participation of researchers in neighbouring areas is strongly encouraged. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following: bio-computation; concurrent qualitative and quantitative distributed systems; process calculi; probabilistic systems; constructive mathematics; domain theory and categorical models; formal languages; formal methods; game semantics; lambda calculus; programming-language theory; quantum computation; security; topological models; logic; type systems; type theory. We also welcome contributions that address applications of semantics to novel areas such as complex systems, markets, and networks, for example.
