The Sixteenth Australasian Workshop on Combinatorial Algorithms (AWOCA
2005) will be held at Ballarat, Victoria, Australia, during September
18-21, 2005.  Ballarat, one of the top tourist attractions in Australia,
is about an hour's drive west from Melbourne airport.  The workshop will
follow the style of its predecessors: problem-oriented papers and an
emphasis on informal discussions.

Topics include (but not limited to) the following
-------------------------------------------------
Algorithms and Data Structures, Complexity Theory, Graph Theory and
Combinatorics, Cryptography, Algorithms on Strings,  Graph Algorithms,
Graph Drawing, Computational Algebra and Geometry, Computational
Biology, Communications Networks, Probabilistic and Randomised
Algorithms, New Paradigms in Computation.


SPECIAL NOTE
------------
The year 2005 marks the 70th birthday of Professor Bill Smyth.  The
workshop will celebrate his contribution to graph theory, combinatorics,
combinatorial algorithms, and a variety of other topics in Mathematics
and Computer Science (in particular, optimal networks, graph labelling
and string algorithms).
