[TYPES/announce] Call for Papers: Compositionality

[Aleks Kissinger]

CALL FOR PAPERS

We invite you to submit a manuscript for publication in the first
issue of Compositionality (ISSN: 2631-4444), a new open-access journal
for research using compositional ideas, most notably of a
category-theoretic origin, in any discipline.

To submit a manuscript, please visit
www.compositionality-journal.org/for-authors/.


SCOPE

Compositionality refers to complex things that can be built by
sticking together simpler parts. We welcome papers using compositional
ideas, most notably of a category-theoretic origin, in any discipline.
This may concern foundational structures, an organising principle, a
powerful tool, or an important application. Example areas include but
are not limited to: computation, logic, physics, chemistry,
engineering, linguistics, and cognition.

Related conferences and workshops that fall within the scope of
Compositionality include the Symposium on Compositional Structures
(SYCO), Categories, Logic and Physics (CLP), String Diagrams in
Computation, Logic and Physics (STRING), Applied Category Theory
(ACT), Algebra and Coalgebra in Computer Science (CALCO), and the
Simons Workshop on Compositionality.


SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION

Submissions should be original contributions of previously unpublished
work, and may be of any length. Work previously published in
conferences and workshops must be significantly expanded or contain
significant new results to be accepted. There is no deadline for
submission. There is no processing charge for accepted publications;
Compositionality is free to read and free to publish in. More details
can be found in our editorial policies at
www.compositionality-journal.org/editorial-policies/.
