ATMCS III Algebraic Topological Methods in Computer Science Paris, France 7-11 July 2008 http://www.lix.polytechnique.fr/~sanjeevi/atmcs/ (poster available for download here) ***SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS*** (New) deadline for abstract submissions: 22 May 2008 Notification of acceptance: 5 June 2008 Deadline for registration: 15 June 2008 Conference: 7-11 July 2008 contact information: atmcs08@lix.polytechnique.fr Recent research has shown that techniques from algebraic topology adapt strikingly well in studying computational systems and other subjects within Computer Science. This third ATMCS conference hopes to bring together researchers employing geometric/topological methods in both abstract and concrete areas of computer science. The week-long conference will feature some invited talks, several accepted talks, a poster session, and countless opportunities for informal collaboration; we plan to publish our proceedings in a refereed journal, pending approval. All authors submitting an abstract by the deadline will have an opportunity, at the least, to present a (refereed) poster at the poster session. ***SCOPE*** Areas of interest include, but are not limited to, concurrency theory, distributed computing and complexity, rewriting systems, image analysis, and sensor networks. ***INVITED SPEAKERS*** A current (and incomplete) list of plenary speakers includes: John Baez, University of California Riverside, U.S.A. Gunnar Carlsson, Stanford University, U.S.A. Herbert Edelsbrunner, Duke University, U.S.A. Robin Forman, Rice University, U.S.A.

Francis Sergeraert, University of Grenoble 1, France Krzysztof Worytkiewicz, AGH University of Science and Technology, Poland ***INSTRUCTIONS FOR SUBMISSIONS*** Authors are invited to submit extended abstracts summarizing current work that explores connections between algebraic topology and computer science. All abstracts should be written in English and should not exceed 1 single-spaced page. Although abstracts preferrably should be submitted at http://atlas-conferences.com/cgi-bin/abstract/submit/caxd-01, abstracts also can be emailed to atmcs08@lix.polytechnique.fr or mailed to the following postal address: Sanjeevi Krishnan DRT LIST DTSI SOL MEASI CEA Saclay 91191 Gif sur Yvette Cedex, France In all cases, submission materials must arrive by May 22, 2008. ***PROGRAM COMMITTEE*** Gunnar Carlsson, Stanford University, U.S.A.
