27 May 2008, Krzysztof Apt CWI fellow: Game Theory Day at CWI

Date: Tuesday 27 May 2008

Our part time professor Krzysztof Apt is appointed CWI Fellow on 1 April 2008. This title is given to outstanding members of CWI's research staff and offers them full freedom in research.

At CWI Apt is member of the research group Algorithms, Combinatorics and Optimization. In 2006 he was appointed member of the Academia Europæa. He is founder and past Editor-in-Chief of the ACM Transactions in Computational Logic. Apt published four books and numerous journal articles, in computer science, mathematical logic and, more recently, game theory.

In honour of his appointment, and to mark the growing interaction between economics and computer science, CWI organizes a symposium on game theory on 27 May 2008. Invited distinguished speakers on this Game Theory Day at CWI are Christos Papadimitriou (University of California, Berkeley) and our Beth Chair holder Dov Samet (Tel Aviv University).
