Budapest, Hungary<br>
June 23 - 27, 2014<br> <a href="http://www.illc.uva.nl/CiE/index.php?page=22_8" target="_blank">http://www.illc.uva.nl/CiE/index.php?page=22_8</a><br>----------------------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>CiE 2014 is the tenth conference organized by CiE (Computability <br>in Europe), a European association of mathematicians, logicians, <br>computer scientists, philosophers, physicists and others <br>interested in new developments in computability and their <br>
underlying significance for the real world. Previous meetings <br>have taken place in Amsterdam (2005), Swansea (2006), Siena <br>(2007), Athens (2008), Heidelberg (2009), Ponte Dalgada (2010), <br>Sofia (2011), Cambridge (2012), and Milan (2013). Please mark the <br>
conference dates in your agendas for 2014.<br><br>CONFIRMED TUTORIAL SPEAKER<br><br>Wolfgang Thomas (RWTH Aachen)<br><br>CONFIRMED INVITED SPEAKERS<br><br>Alessandra Carbone (Universite Pierre et Marie Curie and CNRS Paris)<br>

organizers: Markus Lohrey, Giovanni Pighizzini<br><br><br>The motto of CiE 2014 "Language, Life, Limits" intends to put a <br>special focus on relations between computational linguistics, <br>natural computing, and more traditional fields of computability <br>
theory.<br><br>This is to be understood in its broadest sense including <br>computational aspects of problems in linguistics, studying models <br>of computation and algorithms inspired by physical and biological <br>approaches as well as exhibiting limits (and non-limits) of <br>
computability when considering different models of computation <br>arising from such approaches.<br><br>As with previous CiE conferences, the allover glueing perspective <br>is to strengthen the mutual benefits of analyzing traditional and <br>
new computational paradigms in their corresponding frameworks <br>both with respect to practical applications and a deeper <br>theoretical understanding.<br><br>The conference will address these aspects besides the more <br>
established lines of research of Computational Complexity and the <br>interplay between Proof Theory and Computation.<br><br>Novel views that rely on physical and biological processes and <br>models to find new ways of tackling computations and improving <br>
their efficiency are welcome. Also, massive data analysis and <br>computations are a recent subject of attention, since the most <br>recent technologies produce huge amounts of data, and managing <br>such data requires some theoretical frameworks.<br>
<br>In all cases we are looking for fundamental and theoretical <br>submissions. In line with other conferences in this series, CiE <br>2014 has a broad scope and provides a forum for the discussion of <br>theoretical and practical issues in Computability with an <br>
emphasis on new paradigms of computation and the development of <br>their mathematical theory.<br><br>We particularly invite papers that build bridges between <br>different parts of the research community.<br><br>The PROGRAMME COMMITTEE consists of:<br>
<br> Gerard Alberts (Amsterdam)<br> Sandra Alves (Porto)<br> Hajnal Andreka (Budapest)<br> Luis Antunes (Porto)<br> Arnold Beckmann (Swansea)<br> Laurent Bienvenu (Paris)<br>
Paola Bonizzoni (Milan)<br> Olivier Bournez (Palaiseau)<br> Vasco Brattka (Munich)<br> Bruno Codenotti (Pisa)<br> Barry Cooper (Leeds)<br> Erzsebet Csuhaj-Varju (Budapest, co-chair)<br>

their papers for presentation at CiE 2014. The best of the <br>accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings <br>within the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series of <br>Springer, which will be available at the conference.<br>
