The TYPES Network joins various European research groups that concentrate on the topic Computer-Assisted Formal Reasoning based on type theory, i.e. the use and development of type theory as a basis for theorem proving and formalizing mathematics. The workshop is a forum for researchers that work in this field. The workshop is not restricted to members of the EC network. The previous workshop was in Durham in December 2000.
At the TYPES meeting we will also celebrate the 60th birthday of Per Martin-Löf on Saturday (April 27) afternoon. We are happy to have Dana Scott , Jean-Yves Girard and Peter Aczel as invited speakers for this special occasion.
