Call for Tutorials - ICTAC05

INTERNATIONAL COLLOQUIUM ON
THEORETICAL ASPECTS OF  COMPUTING

Hanoi, Vietnam - 17--21 October, 2005
http://www.iist.unu.edu/ictac05
=====================

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES

ICTAC is an International Colloquium on Theoretical Aspects of
Computing founded by the International Institute for Software
Technology of the United Nations University (UNU-IIST). The aim of the
colloquium is to bring together practitioners and researchers from
academia, industry and government to present research results, and
exchange experience, ideas, and solutions for their problems in
theoretical aspects of computing.The colloquium is aimed particularly,
but not exclusively, at participants from developing countries.  We
believe that this will help developing countries to strengthen their
research, teaching and development in computer science and
engineering, improve the links between developing countries and
developed countries, and establish collaboration in research and
education. The first ICTAC (ICTAC'04) was held in Guiyang, China and
its proceedings were published as "ICTAC 2004: Theoretical Aspects of
Computing", LNCS 3407.

ICTAC'05 will have a technical program for five days
including two days for tutorials and three days for a conference, and a
training school for 5 days.

The topics of the conference include, but are not limited to:

- automata theory and formal languages
- principles and semantics of programming languages
- logics and their applications
- software architectures and their description languages
- software specification,  refinement, and verification
- model checking and theorem proving
- formal techniques in software testing
- models of object and component  systems
- coordination and feature interaction
- integration of formal and  engineering methods
- service-oriented development
- document-driven development
- models of concurrency,  security, and mobility
- theory of parallel, distributed, and  internet-based (grid)
computing
- real-time and embedded systems
- type and category theory in  computer science


SPONSORS AND ORGANISATION

ICTAC'05 will be organised jointly between the Institute of
Information Technology of the Vietnamese Academy of Sciences and
Technology (IoIT), the University of Technology of the Vietnam
National University in Hanoi (UoT-VNU) and UNU-IIST. UNU-IIST, IoIT
and UoT-VNU are also sponsors of ICTAC'05. There will be an
one-week training school during 10--14 October 2005 before the conference.


TUTORIAL SUBMISSION

You are welcome to submit a proposal for a tutorial on any subject
related to the topics listed above. All tutorial proposal submissions
should have a detailed description of the tutorial contents, the time
duration, and an extended abstract written in English. The extended
abstract should not not exceed 5 pages in LNCS format (see
http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html for details). The
extended abstract of the accepted tutorials will be published in the
proceedings of the ICTAC05 conference which will be published by
Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series.

All queries and tutorial proposals should be sent to the program
committee co-chairs Dang Van Hung, e-mail: dvh at iist.unu.edu, or
Martin Wirsing, e-mail: wirsing at informatik.uni-muenchen.de.

The deadline for tutorial proposal submission is 11 July 2005, and the
notification of tutorial proposal acceptance is 25 July 2005.

The date for tutorials is 17-18 October, 2005.
