Summer School on Game Theory in Computer Science: Aarhus, June 2006

----------------------------------------------------------------------
			Call for Participation

	   Summer School on Game Theory in Computer Science

			 University of Aarhus

			   June 26-30, 2006

----------------------------------------------------------------------


In  recent years,  research at  the  intersection of  game theory  and
computer  science  has  become  increasingly  important,  increasingly
strong  and  increasingly  diverse.   This  summer  school  will  span
computational  and  algorithmic  game  theory  as well  as  topics  of
algorithmic flavor in pure game theory.

The  summer school  will take  place at  the BRICS  PhD school  at the
Department of  Computer Science, University  of Aarhus on  June 26-30,
2006. The  intended participants  of  the summer  school are  graduate
students  and post-docs  within  computer science,  but also  students
within mathematics  and economics interested  in computational aspects
of game theory are encouraged to register for the summer school.
