OASIS 10 Year Anniversary Workshop

This is a special workshop to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the OASIS seminar series. Full name the "Oxford Advanced Seminar on Informatic Structures", the series has become a fixture in the theory landscape of the Department. In that time the seminar has welcomed almost 200 speakers, with very few repetitions, bringing to the Department a comprehensive cross-section of the best work being carried out in theoretical computer science.

The speakers are some of the past organizers of the series: Samson Abramsky, Bob Coecke, Dan Ghica, Mehrnoosh Sadrzadeh and Nikos Tzevelekos. Everyone is welcome to come along and take part in the workshop.
