CALCO aims to bring together researchers and practitioners with
interests in foundational aspects, and both traditional and emerging
uses of algebras and coalgebras in computer science.

This is a high-level, bi-annual conference formed by joining the
forces and reputations of CMCS (the International Workshop on
Coalgebraic Methods in Computer Science), and WADT (the Workshop on
Algebraic Development Techniques). Previous CALCO editions took place
in Swansea (Wales, 2005), Bergen (Norway, 2007) and Udine (Italy,
2009). The fourth edition will be held in the city of Winchester
(UK), a historic cathedral city and the ancient capital of Wessex
and the Kingdom of England.

CALCO 2011 will be preceded by the CALCO Young Researchers Workshop,
CALCO-Jnr, dedicated to presentations by PhD students and by those who
completed their doctoral studies within the past few years.

The programme of CALCO will also comprise presentations of tools based on 
algebraic and/or coalgebraic principles, that have been selected in the context 
of a dedicated workshop, CALCO-Tools.

-- LOCATION --

Winchester is a beautiful historic city in southern England, known for
its 11th-century cathedral and 12th-century castle. It is located just
under an hour by rail from London Waterloo, and 15 minutes by road or
rail from Southampton Airport. London Heathrow is 50 miles away and
London Gatwick 72 miles away.
