Theory of Computer Science


The Theory of Computer Science (TCS) Group does research on the theoretical foundations of computer science. The aim is to seek greater understanding of fundamental computational techniques and their inherent limitations. The TCS group forms an integral part of a vibrant community of TCS researchers in Amsterdam.

Divya Ravi joins TCS group and the CiCS project

Divya Ravi has switched groups within IvI to become a member of the TCS group. Her research interests in Secure Multi-Party Computation fit well our current expertise. For the coming 5 years, Divya will be working on the new NWO Gravitation project “Challenges in Cyber Security (CiCS)”.

VENI grant for John van de Wetering

John van de Wetering, assistant professor in the TCS group has been awarded a personal VENI grant from NWO, congratulations!!

TCS group pre 2022

The TCS group has a history of developing theory and tools in the field of algebraic specification which can be used to specify, analyse, and verify concurrent communicating and programmed systems. This link leads you back to the old group homepage, including publications from 1997-2018 and technical reports as well as software.
