=======================================================================

     27th British Colloquium for Theoretical Computer Science (BCTCS)


                      18th to 21st April 2011
                      University of Birmingham

SCOPE

The purpose of the BCTCS is to provide a forum in which researchers in
theoretical computer science can meet, present research findings, and
discuss developments in the field. It also aims to provide an
environment in which PhD students can gain experience in presenting
their work, and benefit from contact with established researchers. The
conference will consist of invited keynote presentations by
distinguished researchers and a number of contributed talks.


LOCATION AND SCHEDULE

BCTCS 2011 will be held at the University of Birmingham, a short train ride 
away from the central "New Street Station" which has direct connections from 
much of the UK.
Accommodation will be provided by the Etap Hotel in the city centre with easy 
access to eateries and other amenities.

The event will start on Monday afternoon and will end with a lunch on
Thursday (the day before Good Friday).

BCTCS 2011 will include invited lectures by the following
distinguished speakers:

     * David S. Johnson (AT&T Labs)
     * Cliff Jones (Newcastle)
     * Prakash Panangaden (McGill)
     * Peter Selinger (Dalhousie)
     * Nigel Smart (Bristol)
     * Carsten Witt (Technical University of Denmark)


CONTRIBUTED TALKS

Participants at the colloquium are encouraged to present a contributed
talk. If you wish to present a contributed talk, please give the title
when you register for the Colloquium. You will be asked to provide an
abstract, using a provided LaTeX template, at a later stage.
The abstracts of accepted contributed talks will be published in the
Bulletin of the European Association for Theoretical Computer Science.


REGISTRATION

The registration fee is GBP 290, which includes accommodation (nights of the 
18th, 19th, and 20th) and one evening meal. Registration is via the Colloquium 
website.

Registration closes on 4 APRIL 2011.
