Schmid Humboldt University Berlin Thomas Schwentick Universität Dortmund Marinella Sciortino University of Palermo Victor Selivanov Institute on Informatics Systems Mariya Soskova University of Wisconsin-Madison Peter Van Emde Boas Universiteit van Amsterdam Linda Brown Westrick Pennsylvania State University The CiE conferences serve as an interdisciplinary forum for research in all aspects of computability, foundations of computer science, logic, and theoretical computer science, as well as the interplay of these areas with practical issues in computer science and with other disciplines such as biology, mathematics, philosophy, or physics. Continuing the tradition of past CiE conferences, the Program Committee cordially invites all researchers (European and non-European) to submit informal presentations of their recent work. A proposal for an informal presentation must be submitted via EasyChair (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cie2020), using the LNCS style file (available at https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines) and be 1 page; a brief description of the results suffices and an abstract is not required. Informal presentations will not be published in the LNCS conference proceedings. Results presented as informal presentations at CiE 2020 may appear or may have appeared in other conferences with formal proceedings and/or in journals. WOMEN IN COMPUTABILITY TRAVEL GRANTS We are very happy to announce that within the framework of the Women in Computability programme sponsored by ACM-W we are able to offer four grants of up to 250 EUR for junior female researchers who want to participate in CiE 2020. Applications for this grant should be sent to johanna.franklin@gmail.com, before APRIL 30, 2020 and include a short cv (at most 2 pages) and contact information for an academic reference. Preference will be given to junior female researchers who are presenting a paper (including informal presentations) at CiE 2020. ASSOCIATION OF SYMBOLIC LOGIC TRAVEL GRANTS The Association for Symbolic Logic is graciously sponsoring CiE 2020. Hence student members of the ASL may apply for student travel awards. Further information can be found on the ASL website. Applications must be received by March 28th.
