MCU, the International Conference on Machines, Computations and Universality is an academic conference in the field of theoretical computer science. It should be held every other year from 2022 on. Most of the proceedings of the conference appear in the series Lecture Notes in Computer Science and extended versions of selected papers are published as special issues of International Journals.
History of the conference series[edit]
The first editions were called Machines et Calcul Universels/Universal Machines and Computations (MCU/UMC), but due to the risk of confusion with another conference series, it was changed to Machines, Computations and Universality (MCU) from the 3rd edition on.
The following table provide the information on the conference edition.[1][2]. Links in the first column refer to the (still available) conference web sites.
