I will present joint work with Brooke Shipley, in which we have defined a model category structure on the category of Σ∞X+-comodule spectra such that the K-theory of the associated Waldhausen category of homotopically finite objects is naturally weakly equivalent to the usual Waldhausen K-theory of X, A(X). I will relate this comodule approach to A(X) to the more familiar approach in terms of Σ∞ Ω X+-module spectra. I will also explain the construction and properties of the topological coHochschild homology of X, which is a potentially interesting approximation to A(X).
