BIWOC - Bonn International Workshop on Ordinal Computability Bonn, January 21-25, 2007 http://www.math.uni-bonn.de/people/logic/biwoc/index.html Recent years saw the emergence of Ordinal Computability - the generalization of standard computability theory to ordinal time or ordinal space. Ordinal computability theory links computability, complexity, descriptive set theory, constructibility theory and other fields in innovative and fruitful ways. The Bonn International Workshop on Ordinal Computability BIWOC aims at bringing together specialists, interested graduate students, and representatives from neighbouring fields. The program will consist of morning talks which will represent the current spectrum of ordinal machine models and identify relevant research questions and projects. Afternoons will be reserved for informal discussions, collaborations, and presentations. We expect that some progress may already be reported at an open session at the end of the workshop. The following scientists intend to participate in BIWOC: Klaus Ambos-Spies, Heidelberg Sam Coskey, Rutgers University Barnaby Dawson, Bristol Ioanna Dimitriou, Bonn Sy Friedman, Vienna Alexander Gilbers, Bonn Victoria Gitman, New York Joel Hamkins, New York Greg Hjorth, Melbourne Bernhard Irrgang, Bonn Thomas Johnstone, New York Marek Karpinski, Bonn Michael Klein, Bonn Ansten Klev, Amsterdam Peter Koepke, Bonn David Linetsky, New York Benedikt Loewe, Amsterdam Russell Miller, New York Wolfram Pohlers, Muenster Jonas Reitz, New York Alexander Rothkegel, Bonn Ralf Schindler, Muenster Daniel Seabold, Hofstra University Benjamin Seyfferth, Bonn Ryan Siders, Helsinki Jip Veldman, Bonn Thomas Waltke, Bonn Steve Warner, Hofstra University Philip Welch, Bristol BIWOC is organized by Joel Hamkins, CUNY, New York and Peter Koepke, Bonn with financial and organisatorial support by the Hausdorff Center for Mathematics: http://www.hausdorff-center.uni-bonn.de/
