QNET is an EPSRC funded research network on Semantics of Quantum Computation. The purpose of the network is to support interaction and collaboration between UK researchers working on the application of semantic techniques to quantum computation. The workshop will take place on the 10th and 11th of December at the Oxford University Computing Laboratory. The invited speakers of the workshop will be: * Caslav Brukner, University of Vienna * Adrian Kent, University of Cambridge We invite contributed talks of 30 minutes on all areas relevant to the foundations of quantum computation, especially on the application of logic, semantics, types, and categorical techniques to quantum =20 computation. To contribute a talk, please send a title and abstract to qnet.workshop@gmail.com. Registration is required, but free; to register email qnet.workshop@gmail.com. There will be a workshop banquet at Wolfson College on Thursday the 10th of December. For attendees who are not members of the network, this will cost =A330. DATES ------ Deadline for contributions : 9 November 2009 Notification : 13 November 2009 Deadline for Registration: 7 December 2009 Workshop dates: 10-11 December 2009 FUNDING --- Some funding will be available for QNET members to attend the workshop, but because the grant is ending, the budget is limited and it will not be possible to give an open commitment to fully fund all attendance costs as with previous workshops. We will do our best to provide funding in as fair a way as possible, and certainly to prioritize funding for PhD students. Please note that if you want funding form the network you MUST email Ian Mackie at i.mackie@sussex.ac.uk in advance. It will not be possible to reimburse expenses otherwise, because the remaining budget will have been allocated.
