The scientific programme consists of two three-hour tutorials, nine plenary talks, six special sessions with four talks each, and over sixty contributed talks. For more details on the programme see the full list of talks below, or visit http://www.cs.swansea.ac.uk/cie06/ The conference venue and accommodation will be on the campus of Swansea University. Swansea lies at the southcoast of Wales, next to the beautiful Gower Peninsula.
