It is an informal forum covering all aspects of theoretical
computer science, and is an ideal place for the discussion of new
developments in the field: as such research students are particularly

Original research contributions on any aspects of theoretical computer
science are invited. Talks may cover work currently in progress
provided that it is sufficiently advanced. 
Topics include and NOT limited to:

    Logic and Semantics of Programming Languages;
    Mathematics of Computation; 
    Program Specification and Verification;
    Theory of Concurrency; Formal Methods; 
    Abstract Data Types; Algorithms and Data Structures;
