                        CALL for PAPERS
                            ASIAN'00 

               Asian Computing Science Conference
             Penang, Malaysia, November 25-27, 2000

     Conference Web Page:        http://www.sato.kuis.kyoto-u.ac.jp/~asian00
     Paper submission deadline:  July 31, 2000

BACKGROUND:
----------

The series of annual Asian Computing Science Conferences (ASIAN) was
initiated in 1995 by AIT, INRIA and UNU/IIST to provide a forum for 
researchers in computer science from the Asian region and to promote 
interaction with researchers from other regions.  The first five 
conferences have been held, respectively, in Bangkok, Singapore, 
Kathmandu, Manila and Phuket. In addition to support from the host countries, 
they have also been sponsored by INRIA, France, UNU/IIST, Macau and 
NUS, Singapore.  The proceedings have been published as Lecture Notes 
in Computer Science, Springer-Verlag.

SCOPE:
------

The scope of the conferences has been a broad coverage of Computer Science,
but with a focus on a few chosen specific themes concerning the formal 
aspects of algorithms, programming, concurrency and parallelism, networking 
and security.  The 2000 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:

  * Logics in Computer Science

  * Data Mining

  * Networks and Performance

INVITED SPEAKERS:
----------------

The  keynote  speaker at ASIAN'00 will be Jean Vuillemin (Ecole Normale
Superieure, France).  We will also have some invited speakers, in the 
tradition of the past conferences.

SUBMISSIONS:
-----------

We invite submissions on original research not published or submitted for
publication elsewhere.  Submission procedure is described below.

The proceedings are 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.
