ALGI: Seminar on Algebra, Logic and Geometry in Informatics

Click here for a Japanese version.

This is a series of seminars on applications of algebra, logic and geometry to informatics, and applications of informatics to these areas of mathematics. ALGI is organized especially for people in informal semantics of programming languages, as there were no such in this field, while there are already several series of seminars in Japan for people in the field between mathematical logic and theoretical computer science.

Future Meetings

The 21th ALGI meeting will be held on September 6 - September 7, 2008, at Epoch Ritsumei 21, 3F K310, Biwako-Kusatsu Campus, Ritsumeikan University.
Local Organiser: Yoshihiro Fukumoto.
