COCOON'2OOO --- Preliminary Call for Papers --- Sixth Annual International Computing and Combinatorics Conference July 26-28, 2000, Bondi Beach , Sydney , Australia The Sixth Annual International Computing and Combinatorics Conference, COCOON'2000, will be held in Bondi Beach , Sydney , Australia July 26--28, 2000 (a few weeks before the XXVII Olympics, September 15 -- October 1 ). The conference aims to provide a forum for researchers in theoretical computer science. Original research papers in the areas of algorithms, theory of computation, computational complexity, and combinatorics related to computing are solicited. In additional to theoretical results, submissions that report substantial results in experimental and applied research are encouraged. Typical, but not exclusive, topics of interest include: -- algorithms and data structures -- automata, languages and logic -- combinatorics related to algorithms and complexity -- complexity theory -- computational algebra, biology, geometry, and number theory -- computational learning theory and knowledge discovery -- cryptography and database theory -- graph drawing and information visualization -- graph theory, communication networks, and optimization -- parallel and distributed computing Submissions to the conference this year will again be conducted electronically. Authors should send a PostScript file of a paper (in English) to cocoon2000@cse.unsw.edu.au by February 8, 2000. A submission guideline will be given on our home page: http://www.cs.newcastle.edu.au/~cocoon2000 Alternatively, authors unable to access e-mail may send 6(six) hard copies of their papers to: Xuemin Lin - COCOON'2000 School of Computer Science and Engineering University of New South Wales Sydney, NSW 2052, Australia. e-mail: lxue@cse.unsw.edu.au A paper should start with the title of the paper, each author's name, affiliation, e-mail address, and a short summary of the main results. The paper should provide sufficient detail to allow the Program Committee to evaluate its validity, quality, and relevance to the conference. The length of the paper should not exceed 10 pages (using 11 point or larger font, with ample margins all around). If necessary, authors may include a clearly marked appendix that will be read at the discretion of the Program Committee. An abstract of the paper must be submitted electronically by February 1, 2000. Authors will be notified of acceptance or rejection by March 30, 2000. A camera-ready copy of each accepted paper will be required by April 26, 2000. The proceedings of the conference will be published by Springer-Verlag in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series, and will be available for distribution at the conference. The Hao Wang award will be given to the best paper (details will be given on our home page). We also introduce an award for the best paper from a young researcher (at most 3 years since PhD).
