Workshop Aim:

Physics and computation have interacted from the early days of computing. Ultimately, physics laws permit computation. The aim of the workshop is to bring together researchers with various interests in the area to discuss important issues like fundamental physical limits of computers, chaos and dynamical systems, quantum computers and hypercomputation.

Pre-Proceedings:

The CDMTCS Research Report 327 (July 2008) contains the Workshop Pre-Proceedings.

Proceedings:

The Workshop Proceedings will be published in two special issues of the international journals:
Applied Mathematics and Computation
Natural Computing

Organizers:

Cristian S. CALUDE and José Félix COSTA
