THE PROGRAMME COMMITTEE cordially invites all researchers (European and non-European) to submit their papers in all areas related to computability for presentation at the conference and inclusion in the proceedings at https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cie2017. Papers must be submitted in PDF format, using the LNCS style (available at ftp://ftp.springer.de/pub/tex/latex/llncs/latex2e/llncs2e.zip) and should have a maximum of 10 pages, including references but excluding a possible appendix in which one can include proofs and other additional material. Papers that build bridges between different parts of the research community are particularly welcome. The CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS will be published by LNCS, Springer Verlag.

It takes place on June 17, 2017, immediately after CiE. The symposium celebrates the 75th birthday of Prof. Grzegorz Rozenberg, University of Leiden, the Netherlands and University of Colorado at Boulder, USA. Grzegorz Rozenberg is one of the world leaders in research on Theoretical Computer Science and Natural Computing. As a matter of fact, he is often called the guru of Natural Computing, having started promoting it as a coherent scientific discipline already from the 1970s ? he gave this area its name and defined its scope. He played a central role in the development of theoretical computer science in Europe. His research is very broad in scope and it is a prime example of interdisciplinary research. He has authored exceptionally many research papers opening new vistas, as well as well-known books about developmental languages, decidability and DNA computing. He supervised numerous Ph.D. students, many of whom have become known scientists. He serves or has served the international computer science community in numerous roles, including: president of the European Association for Theoretical Computer Science (EATCS); cofounder and president of the International Society for Nanoscale Science, Computation, and Engineering (ISNSCE); chair of the steering committee of the DNA Computing Conference; cofounder and chair of the steering committee of the International Conference on Application and Theory of Petri Nets; chair of the steering committee of the European Educational Forum; cofounder and chair of the steering committee of the International Conference on Developments in Language Theory; co-chair of the steering committee of the International Conference on Unconventional Computation and Natural Computation; and director of European Molecular Computing Consortium. The talks given at the symposium will have an overview character and together they will cover a broad range of topics from Computer Science, reflecting Grzegorz Rozenberg's broad research interests. Among the topics covered are: P vs NP, reaction systems, membrane computing, graph isomorphism, combinatorics on words, DNA rearrangements, smart textiles, smart drones, magic squares, wonder cubes, and odor reproduction. Confirmed speakers include: David Harel, Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel- "On odor reproduction and how to test for it" Hendrik Jan Hoogeboom, University of Leiden, the Netherlands - TBA Juraj Hromkovic, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich, Switzerland - "Why P vs. NP is so hard that even magicians failed to solve it" Natasha Jonoska, University of South Florida, USA - TBA Juhani Karhumäki, University of Turku, Finland - "Combinatorics on words and k-abelian equivalence" Hermann Maurer, Academia Europaea and Graz University of Technology, Austria: "Some unusual applications of computer science" George Paun, Institute of Mathematics of the Academy of Romania - TBA Azaria Paz, Technion, Israel - "Linked magic squares on a cube. Theme and variations" Moshe Vardi, Rice University, USA - TBA The symposium is free of charge.
