It is a celebration of the direct impact of Theoretical Computer Science on programs as we write them today. Modern programming languages, and in particular functional languages, support the direct expression of mathematical structures, equipping programmers with tools of remarkable power and abstraction. Monadic programming in Haskell is the paradigmatic example, but there are many more mathematical insights manifest in programs and in programming language design: Freyd-categories in reactive programming, symbolic differentiation yielding context structures, and comonadic presentations of dataflow, to name but three. This workshop is a forum for researchers who seek to reflect mathematical phenomena in data and control.
