***********************************************************

The EQIS meetings are to focus on quantum information science
and technology, a new interdisciplinary field bridging computer
science, quantum physics, mathematics, information theory,
statistics, optics- and nano-technologies.
EQIS'05 will be the fifth conference in a series and is to
concentrate on theoretical and also experimental aspects of
quantum information science.

Contributions for short communications and posters will be solicited
in the research areas related to quantum information science,
including, but not limited to:

    * quantum computation, quantum algorithms,
    * quantum complexity theory, quantum computing and automata models,
    * quantum computer simulators, quantum information theory,
    * quantum cryptography, quantum entanglement,
    * additivity/nonadditivity results,
    * teleportation and entanglement-assisted communication,
    * quantum error correction, decoherence, quantum estimation theory,
    * quantum optics, NMR and solid state technologies.
