HYPERCOMPUTATION
WORKSHOP
9.30 a.m. - 9.00 p.m., Wednesday 24th May, 2000, University College, London
A one-day workshop organised jointly by the Turing Project and the Philosophy Department of the University of Reading.
A hypercomputer is any information-processing device able to carry out tasks that cannot be carried out by a universal Turing machine. Various mathematical and theoretical models have been proposed, including neural network models. The workshop will provide a forum for the exchange of ideas in this emerging field.
Speakers will include: Carol Cleland, Jack Copeland, Mark Hogarth, Gert-Jan Lokhorst, Oron Shagrir, Hava Siegelmann, and Mike Stannett.
