% PRELIMINARY CALL FOR PAPERS %
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
The 24th annual meeting of the European Association for Theoretical Computer
Science will take place in Bologna, Italy, July 7-11 1997. ICALP '97 comes
in conjunction with the 25th anniversary of the foundation of EATCS.
To celebrate the SILVER JUBILEE, this edition of ICALP includes several new
events:
- Celebration of EATCS and of its founders (keynote speaker M. Nivat)
- Invited Lectures on major advances in theoretical computer science since
EATCS has been established:
R. Milner (Cambridge) M.O. Rabin (Jerusalem and Harvard)
C. Papadimitriou (Berkeley) D.S. Scott (Pittsburgh)
- Invited Lectures on the state of the art and new promising trends:
K.R. Apt (Amsterdam) K. Mehlhorn (Saarbrucken)
R.J. Lipton (Princeton) D. Perrin (Paris)
- A panel on ` Funding Policies for Theoretical Computer Science' with
representatives from major research agencies and form the European Community.
- A number of Satellite Workshops, listed below, on theory and applications.
The Program Committee represents both tracks of the journal Theoretical
Computer Science, covering `algorithms, automata, complexity and games'
and `formal methods, logic, semantics and theory of programming' equally.
If enough good papers are submitted, parallel sessions will be organised.
