Following the successful experience of the last three editions, ICALP 2008 will complement the established structure of the scientific program based on Track A on Algorithms, Automata, Complexity and Games, and Track B on Logic, Semantics, and Theory of Programming, corresponding to the two main streams of the journal Theoretical Computer Science, with a special Track C on Security and Cryptography Foundations. The aim of Track C is to allow a deeper coverage of a particular topic, to be specifically selected for each year's edition of ICALP on the basis of its timeliness and relevance for the theoretical computer science community. In addition to the main conference, ICALP 2008 will also feature pre- and post-conference workshops on July 6, 12, and 13, 2008. A call for workshop is now open, and details on the submission of workshop proposals may be found at http://www.ru.is/icalp08/cfw.html. Papers presenting original research on all aspects of theoretical computer science are sought. Typical but not exclusive topics of interest are: Track A - Algorithms, Automata, Complexity and Games: * Algorithmic Aspects of Networks * Algorithmic Game Theory * Approximation Algorithms * Automata Theory * Combinatorics in Computer Science * Computational Biology * Computational Complexity * Computational Geometry * Data Structures * Design and Analysis of Algorithms * Internet Algorithmics * Machine Learning * Parallel, Distributed and External Memory Computing * Randomness in Computation * Quantum Computing=20 Track B - Logic, Semantics, and Theory of Programming: * Algebraic and Categorical Models * Automata and Formal Languages * Emerging and Non-standard Models of Computation * Databases, Semi-Structured Data and Finite Model Theory * Principles of Programming Languages * Logics, Formal Methods and Model Checking * Models of Concurrent, Distributed, and Mobile Systems * Models of Reactive, Hybrid and Stochastic Systems * Program Analysis and Transformation * Specification, Refinement and Verification * Type Systems and Theory, Typed Calculi=20 Track C - Security and Cryptography Foundations: * Cryptographic Notions, Mechanisms, Systems and Protocols * Cryptographic Proof Techniques, Lower bounds, Impossibilities * Foundations of Secure Systems and Architectures * Logic and Semantics of Security Protocols * Number Theory and Algebraic Algorithms (Primarily in Cryptography) * Pseudorandomness, Randomness, and Complexity Issues * Secure Data Structures, Storage, Databases and Content * Security Modeling: Combinatorics, Graphs, Games, Economics * Specifications, Verifications and Secure Programming * Theory of Privacy and Anonymity * Theory of Security in Networks and Distributed Computing * Quantum Cryptography and Information Theory=20 SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Authors are invited to submit an extended abstract of no more than 12 pages in LNCS style presenting original research on the theory of Computer Science. Submissions should indicate to which track (A, B, or C) the paper is submitted. No simultaneous submission to other publication outlets (either a conference or a journal) is allowed. The proceedings will be published in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science Series by Springer-Verlag. It is recommended that submissions adhere to the specified format and length. Submissions that are clearly too long may be rejected immediately. Additional material intended for the referee but not for publication in the final version - for example details of proofs - may be placed in a clearly marked appendix that is not included in the page limit.
