Original papers are solicited in all areas relating to hypercomputation research. Typical topics include, but are not restricted to: philosophical implications, justifications and analyses of hypercomputation; hypercomputational models of Newtonian, quantum and relativistic physics; mathematical models and representations of hypercomputational systems; engineering challenges; proposals for going beyond the Turing paradigm; digital physics and refutations of hypercomputation.

Submissions: Authors are invited to submit papers (no more than 12 pages) via EasyChair:

HyperNet 10 is organized jointly by the University of Tokyo in Japan, and members of the VT (Verification and Testing) Research Group at the University of Sheffield, under the auspices of UC 2010 and the EPSRC, and on behalf of the Hypercomputation Research Network. Comprising researchers from around the world, the Network investigates all aspects of hypercomputation, ranging from philosophy and logic to physical feasibility and computability. Previous Network events include the 2006 workshop on Future Trends in Hypercomputation (Sheffield, UK), the 2009 conference on the Science and Philosophy of Unconventional Computing (SPUC 09, Cambridge, UK), and the UC09 Hypercomputation Workshop (Ponta Delgada, The Azores, Portugal).
