will take place at Taj Bengal Hotel, 5-star hotel in Kolkata, India, December 
18-20, 2006.  The symposium is intended to provide a forum for researchers 
working in algorithms and theory of computation.  Papers presenting original 
research in the areas of design and analysis of algorithms, computational 
complexity, and theory of computation are sought. 

Topics include but are not limited to: 
   Algorithms and data structures,
   approximation algorithms,
   combinatorial optimization,
   computational biology,
   computational complexity,
   computational geometry,
   computational linguistics,
   cryptography,
   experimental algorithm methodologies,
   graph drawing and graph algorithms,
   Internet algorithms,
   online algorithms,
   parallel and distributed algorithms,
   randomized algorithms,
   quantum computing.

Proceedings and Best Paper Awards:
The conference proceedings will be published by Springer-Verlag in its 
Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series.  Selected papers will 
be invited to special issues of "Algorithmica" and "International J. on 
Computational Geometry and Applications."  The Best Paper Award and the Best 
Student Paper Award will be offered.  Please indicate "student paper" on the 
front page.  The student's supervisor may be a coauthor of the paper.

Submissions: Both papers reporting on original research unpublished 
elsewhere and surveys of important results are welcome. 
Simultaneous submission to other conferences with published proceedings 
is not permitted.
Authors should submit an extended abstract (not a full paper), not
exceeding 10 pages in LNCS LaTeX style, including references,
figures, title, authors, affiliations, e-mail addresses, and a short 
(one-paragraph) abstract.  The LNCS LaTeX style file is supplied by 
Springer-Verlag at
