CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
Highlights of AutoMathA
Final Conference of the ESF Research Networking Programme
"Automata: From Mathematics to Applications"
Technische Universitaet Wien, 21th - 24th November 2010

-------------------------------------------------------------------
The conference "Highlights of AutoMathA" is the culmination of the
activities of the Research Network "Automata: From Mathematics to
Applications", joining top research teams from 14 countries and funded by the
European Science Foundation (ESF).
In 18 survey lectures by leading experts, the current state-of-the-art of
automata theory will be presented, with a focus on progress obtained during the
past decade, both in foundations and applications, and addressing also the
challenges that will guide future research. The conference is an ideal and
unique venue for all who are interested in an up-to-date overview of this rich
and fastly developing area.
The program is available at the conference website
http://dmg.tuwien.ac.at/automata. There is no registration fee due to the
support by ESF; however, registration through the conference website is
mandatory.
For younger researchers the conference will serve as an "Advanced Winter
School of Automata Theory". Limited travel support for young researchers
(up to 30 year old) is available (up to 300 Euro per person). Applications
should be sent to Werner Kuich, the head of the organizing committee
(kuich@pop.tuwien.ac.at).
The material presented at "Highlights of AutoMathA" will form part of a
"Handbook of Automata Theory" that is under preparation, including as
authors many of the conference speakers.
