Biography

John Longley studied Mathematics at the University of Cambridge, and worked for a year in Formal Methods at Plessey Research and Technology before embarking on a PhD in the Laboratory for Foundations of Computer Science, University of Edinburgh. His work lies at the intersection of mathematical logic and theoretical computer science, focusing in particular on concepts of computability in higher-order settings. Together with Dag Normann of Oslo University, he has co-authored a book, 'Higher-Order Computability', which is due to be published by Springer in 2015.
