ASIAN COMPUTING SCIENCE CONFERENCE
Kathmandu, Nepal, December 9-11, 1997
========================================================================
BACKGROUND:
The series of annual Asian Computing Science Conferences (ASIAN for
short, formerly called ACSC) was started in 1995 to provide a forum for
researchers in computer science from the Asian region and to promote
interaction with researchers from other regions.
The first conference, ACSC'95, was held in Bangkok, organized by the
Asian Institute of Technology. The second conference, ASIAN'96, was
held in Singapore, organized by National University of Singapore. Both
were held in partnership with INRIA, France, and the UNU/IIST, Macau.
The proceedings were published as Lecture Notes in Computer Science 1023
and 1179 from Springer-Verlag.
Their scope was a broad coverage of Computer Science, though there was a
focus on the more conceptual areas of algorithms, programming,
concurrency and parallelism, networking and security.
SCOPE:
The 1997 conference will continue to emphasize the conceptual areas of
Computer Science, though papers in all areas will be considered. The
following themes represent the areas of focus for this year:
- Programming Languages and Compilation Technology
- Formal Reasoning and Constraints
- Real-Time Computing
- Network/Mobile Computing
PAPER SUBMISSIONS:
Authors are invited to send manuscripts by e-mail in a self-contained
PostScript file (gzipped and uuencoded), complemented by one hardcopy
sent to the address (below) of R. K. Shyamasundar.
The length guidelines are 10-12 pages in 11-point font and 3000 words.
In addition, a separate e-mail message should be sent containing the
paper title and a 150-word abstract, authors, keywords, postal address,
e-mail address and fax number.
E-mail submissions should be sent to both
asian97@tcs.tifr.res.in and asian97@ueda.info.waseda.ac.jp .
If e-mail is not available, five hardcopies and the above coversheet
information should be sent to R. K. Shyamasundar.
PUBLICATION:
The proceedings are expected to be published by Springer-Verlag in the
LNCS series. In addition to regular papers, we hope to accept posters,
which will appear as two-page abstracts in the proceedings. Papers and
posters must be presented at the conference by one of the authors.
