21-23 May 2006, STOC 2006: 38th ACM Symposium on Theory of Computing, Seattle

Date: 21-23 May 2006
Location: Seattle
Deadline: 3 November 2005

The 38th ACM Symposium on Theory of Computing (STOC 2006), sponsored by the ACM Special Interest Group on Algorithms and Computation Theory (SIGACT), will be held in Seattle, WA, May 21 to 23, 2006. Typical but not exclusive topics of interest include: algorithms and data structures, computational complexity, cryptography, computational geometry, algorithmic graph theory and combinatorics, randomness in computing, parallel and distributed computation, machine learning, applications of logic, algorithmic algebra and coding theory, computational biology, computational game theory, quantum computing and other alternative models of computation, and theoretical aspects of areas such as databases, information retrieval, and networks.

For more information, see http://www.cs.washington.edu/stoc06/

Papers presenting new and original research on the theory of computation are sought. Submission deadline: 5:59 pm EST, Thursday, November 3, 2005.

22-24 February 2006, WLP 2006: 20th Workshop on Logic Programming, Vienna University of Technology, Austria

Date: 22-24 February 2006
Location: Vienna University of Technology, Austria
Deadline: 14 November 2005

The series of workshops on (constraint) logic programming serve as the annual meeting of the Society of Logic Programming (GLP e.V.) and bring together researchers interested in logic programming, constraint programming, and related areas like databases and artificial intelligence. Previous workshops have been held in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. The workshops provide a forum for exchanging ideas on declarative logic programming, nonmonotonic reasoning and knowledge representation, and facilitate interactions between research in theoretical foundations and in the design and implementation of logic-based programming systems. The technical program of the workshop will include invited talks, presentations of refereed papers, and system demonstrations.

For more information, see http://www.kr.tuwien.ac.at/wlp06/

Authors are invited to submit an extended abstract or a system description before November 14, 2005.

22-24 March 2006, SALT 16 (Semantics and Linguistic Theory), Tokyo

Date: 22-24 March 2006
Location: Tokyo
Deadline: 14 November 2005

SALT 16 will be held March 22-24, 2006 at the Komaba campus of the University of Tokyo under the auspices of the Center for Evolutionary Cognitive Sciences.
