BACKGROUND

Types are pervasive in programming and information technology. A type
defines a formal interface between software components, allowing the
automatic verification of their connections, and greatly enhancing the
robustness and reliability of computations and communications. In rich
dependent type theories, the full functional specification of a
program can be expressed as a type. Type systems have rapidly evolved
over the past years, becoming more sophisticated, capturing new
aspects of the behaviour of programs and the dynamics of their
execution.

The aim of this summer school is to provide advanced training,
especially to PhD students and early-career researchers, in all
aspects of the theory and practice of type theory and applications.
