INVITED SPEAKERS:

Cristian Calude (Auckland, New Zealand)
Lucien Hardy (Perimeter Institute, Canada)
Russ Harmer (Paris/Harvard)
Gordon Plotkin (Edinburgh)
Vlatko Vedral (Oxford)

IMPORTANT DATES:

Submission deadline for extended abstracts: 9th April, 2010
Notification: 26 April
Workshop: 9-10 July, 2010

After the workshop, full versions of selected papers will be invited 
for a special issue of the internationally leading journal 
Mathematical Structures in Computer Science (MSCS).
=========================================================================

DCM 2010 is the sixth in a series of international workshops focusing on new
computational models. It aims to bring together researchers who are
currently developing new computational models or new features of a
traditional one. And to foster interaction, to provide a forum for
presenting new ideas and work in progress, and to enable newcomers to learn
about current activities in this area.

DCM 2010 will be a two-day satellite event of FLoC 2010, with a special
focus on the theme 'Causality, Computation, and Physics'. Day 2 of 
the Workshop will have an emphasis on quantum computation and 
physics, held as Quantum Information Science Scotland (QUISCO), and 
is co-sponsored by Scottish Universities Physics Alliance (SUPA) and 
Scottish Informatics and Computer Science Alliance (SICSA).

Topics of interest include all abstract models of computation and their
properties, and their applications to the development of programming
languages and systems:

- quantum computation, including implementations and formal methods in
quantum protocols;
- probabilistic computation and verification in modelling situations;
- chemical, biological and bio-inspired computation, including spatial
models, self-assembly, growth models;
- general concurrent models including the treatment of mobility, trust, and
security;
- information-theoretic ideas in computing.

=========================================================================
PLEASE SUBMIT an extended abstract (of around 12 pages or less) in PDF
format to the conference EasyChair submission page:

                   https://www.easychair.org/login.cgi?conf=dcm2010

by the deadline:
                              9th April, 2010.

Accepted contributions will appear in a pre-proceedings special issue 
of the EPTCS (Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science).
