20-23 Jan 2009
Wellington, New Zealand
The 15th Computing: The Australasian Theory Symposium (CATS) will be held in Wellington, New Zealand, during January 20-23, 2009. CATS is one of the two premier annual conferences in theoretical computer science in the Asia-Pacific. For more details about the CATS conference, please see http://velorum.ballarat.edu.au/~pmanyem/CATS09/index.html. An innovation introduced for CATS 2009 is a Discussion Track, which is intended as a form for discussing (some of) the accepted papers for CATS in the few months before the conference (in this case, from November, 2008 to January 19, 2009). Authors of accepted papers were given the choice whether or not to include their paper in this track. At present, there are 12 papers included (from a total of 19 accepted papers). Discussion is invited from anyone who is interested in the papers and is willing to contribute. The Discussion Track website is http://www.cs.rmit.edu.au/~jah/cats09 As this is a new and experimental development, there are many unanswered questions here. It is our hope that having online discussions like this will enhance the interactions possible at the CATS meeting, as the papers are not introduced for the first time at the conference itself. Naturally we are most interested to hear feedback, and particularly on ways in which this could be improved. Please do visit the Discussion Track site, comment on papers of interest to you and send us feedback on any aspect of the Discussion Track.
