 The theory of derivators is an approach to homotopical algebra
that focuses on the existence of homotopy Kan extensions. Homotopy
theories (e.g. model categories) typically give rise to derivators by
considering the homotopy categories of all diagrams categories
simultaneously. A general problem is to understand how faithfully the
derivator actually represents the homotopy theory. In this talk, I will
discuss this problem in connection with algebraic K-theory, and give a
survey of the results around the problem of recovering the K-theory of a
good Waldhausen category from the structure of the associated derivator.
