Implicit computational complexity

June 30 - July 1, 1999 -  Room 7-L


The synergy between Logic and Computational Complexity has gained importance and vigor in recent years, cutting across areas such as Proof Theory, Finite Model Theory, Computation Theory, Applicative Programming, Database Theory, and Philosophical Logic. Several machine-independent approaches to computational complexity have been developed, which characterize complexity classes by conceptual measures borrowed primarily from mathematical logic. Examples are descriptive complexity (finite model theory), bounded arithmetic, set-existence principles, intrinsic theories, linear logics, and algebras of functions. Collectively these approaches might be dubbed Implicit Computational Complexity. Practically, implicit computational complexity provide framework for a streamlined incorporation of computational complexity into areas such as formal methods in software development, programming language theory, and database theory.

The mission of the workshop is to further the development of implicit computational complexity and its applications, in particular in database theory, functional programming languages, and formal methods in hardware and software design. In addition to research reports on advances in implicit computational complexity, the workshop will strive to facilitate the discovery of conceptual bridges and unifying principles.
