The workshop is an informal meeting to bring together researchers in mathematics and computer science with a focus on the application of category theory in computer science. It is a three day meeting, that starts with a day of tutorials aimed at students and newcomers to category theory, followed by a day and a half of research talks. The meeting this year has a little website (the schedule and speakers will be announced on the site) see: http://www.cpsc.ucalgary.ca/~fmcs99 The workshop will have approximately the same format as last year, with a day of tutorials on friday June 4 and shorter research presentations on June 5 and 6. Tutorials will be given by: Ernie Manes More monads ... Rick Blute Linear Logic Phil Mulry Partial maps David Benson Sketches and complexity Due to the location (in the foothills of the Rockies) we shall be adopting a mountain conference schedule: lectures will run 9:00am - 12:00pm, packed lunches (a chance for walks and talks etc.), supper at 5:30pm, and lectures resume 7:00pm - 10:00pm. The area offers walks of all standards in some of the most stunning mountain scenery of the Rockies. In June the evenings still get quite cool. We do have limited support for student participation (for which one must apply) as usual student participation and talks are encouraged. If you would like to attend this year please visit the web site and send in your registration form! I look forward to seeing you at FMCS ... Robin Cockett
