The purpose of the workshop is to bring together combinatorialists with
interests in computational and algorithmic issues and theoretical computer
scientists with interests in combinatorial and graph-theoretic problems.
Formal lectures will be limited to Tuesdays and Thursdays; the remaining
time will be unstructured with meeting rooms available for (more or less)
informal discussions.
The dates were chosen to avoid the most obvious conflicts with
other meetings.  (The ACM Symposium on Principles of Distributed
Computing, which takes place August 10-12, will also be held in Vancouver.)
In any event, it is not expected that all participants will stay
the entire four weeks of the workshop.
     
The following speakers have agreed to deliver an invited lecture:
N. Alon, R. Anstee, D. Avis, J-C Bermond, F.R.K. Chung, C. Colbourn,
D. Corneil, M. Farber, R. Graham, P. Hammer,
T. Ibaraki, R. Karp, M. Klawe, D. Kirkpatrick,
N. Pippenger, W. Pulleyblank, I. Rival, M. Saks, E. Welzl, and P. Winkler.
In addition, the following
invited speakers may also participate: D. Johnson,
B. Korte, T. Leighton, J. Nesetril, T. Nishizeki,
C. Papadimitriou, and R. Tarjan.
     
Participation will be limited to about 80 persons. There will be a
registration fee of $70 (Can), which will be waived for
graduate students.
Some campus housing may be available; there may also be a possibility of
shared accommodation in sublet houses and apartments.
