It is held annually as part of Australasian Computer Science Week (ACSW). CATS 2001 will be the seventh in the series. The symposium will consist of invited speakers and research paper presentations. DATE AND LOCATION CATS 2001 will be held over two days during Australasian Computer Science Week. ACSW 2001 will take place at Bond University, Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia, from 29th January to 2nd February 2001. SCOPE CATS covers all aspects of theoretical computer science. Some representative, but not exclusive, topics include the following: - logic, reasoning and verification - formal specification techniques and program semantics - formal development methods, program refinement, synthesis and transformation - concurrent, parallel and distributed system theory - theory of algorithms and data structures - complexity and computability - automata, number and category theory - tools for automated reasoning, and program analysis and development KEYNOTE ADDRESSES Prof Mathai Joseph, Tata Research Development and Design Centre, Pune, India Prof Carroll Morgan, Software Engineering Research Group, Department of Computer Science and Engineering, University of New South Wales CALL FOR PAPERS Research paper submissions to CATS 2001 should be prepared according to the formatting requirements below and sent to the Programme Chair, to arrive no later than August 4, 2000. Submissions must be original work, not published or submitted elsewhere. All submissions will be refereed. PROCEEDINGS The proceedings of CATS 2001 will be published by Elsevier Science in their series Electronic Notes in Theoretical Computer Science. ENTCS is an electronic series associated with the journal Theoretical Computer Science, and published by Elsevier Science B. V. (Institutions subscribing to TCS can access full papers in ENTCS on-line.) ENTCS offers rapid, worldwide dissemination of research results, an absence of page limits, and long-term accessibility through the electronic archives that Elsevier maintains. (The proceedings of last year's CATS 2000 conference appeared as ENTCS Volume 31.) A hardcopy preliminary proceedings will be provided to conference attendees. Authors of selected papers from the CATS 2001 proceedings will be invited to submit extended versions of their papers to a Special Issue of the journal Theoretical Computer Science. FORMATTING REQUIREMENTS To ensure a uniform format for papers, all submissions to CATS 2001 must be prepared in LaTeX using the ENTCS macros. Papers in other formats cannot be accepted. Further information is available via the ENTCS home page: http://www.elsevier.nl/locate/entcs/. (Follow the links for "Instructions for Submissions" and "Technical Requirements".) Complete papers should be e-mailed as PostScript files, preferably as MIME attachments. Although there is no strict page limit on submissions to CATS 2001, authors are strongly encouraged to be as concise as possible. Papers between 10 and 15 pages are considered ideal. If necessary, definitions and proofs not essential to understanding the paper should be relegated to appendices to appear only in the electronic version. CALL FOR POSTERS A poster session will be arranged to give CATS attendees the opportunity to give informal presentations of their work. Expressions of interest, briefly outlining the poster's topic, should be e-mailed to the Programme Chair by November 10, 2000.
