TCS2004: 3rd IFIP International conference on Theoretical Computer Science

 

Tc1 - Foundations of Computer Science

 

Room for TCS-Algorithms: Vignemale

Room for TCS-Logic: Carlit

TCS 2004 is composed of two distinct, but interrelated tracks.

. TCS-Algorithms focuses on Algorithms, Complexity and Models of Computation, while
. TCS-Logic focuses on Logic, Semantics, Specification and Verification.

 

Conference Chair: Jean-Jacques Lévy (INRIA, France)
TCS-Algorithms Chair: Ernst Mayr (Technical U. Munich, Germany)
TCS-Logic Chair: John Mitchell (Stanford U., USA)

The Final Programme is online!

We are very proud to present an extremely attractive programme that offers more than six hundred presentations.
This very rich programme offers a large variety of opportunities. Attendees will be able to compose their own menu, by mixing on-the-edge research and state-of-the-practice results in their own field of expertise, together with surveys and prospective views in other domains of interest.
The overall schedule of sessions and the social events have been designed to facilitate fruitful interactions between attendees.

Join us during a week and share l'esprit de Toulouse !
