The 32th British Colloquium for Theoretical Computer Science (BCTCS) will be hosted by the Department of Computer Science, Queen's University of Belfast.

The purpose of BCTCS is to provide a forum in which researchers in theoretical computer science can meet, present research findings, and discuss developments in the field. It also aims to provide an environment in which PhD students can gain experience in presenting their work, and benefit from contact with established researchers.

The scope of the colloquium includes all aspects of theoretical computer science, including automata theory, algorithms, complexity theory, semantics, formal methods, concurrency, types, languages and logics. Both computer scientists and mathematicians are welcome to attend, as are participants from outside of the UK.

The colloquium features both invited (a list of eminent speakers is on the website) and contributed talks.

Submissions are invited for contributed talks on any topic in the scope of the colloquium. Presentations from research students and early career researchers are particularly encouraged. The titles and abstracts of invited and contributed talks will appear in the Bulletin of the EATCS.

Participants wishing to give a 30 minute contributed talk on any topic in the scope of the colloquium need to email a title and abstract to bctcs@qub.ac.uk. The deadline for submission and early registration is Feb 15, 2016 but late submission and registration will be accepted space permitting. There are also limited number of bursaries for PhD students who apply early.
