ACM Computer Science Conference
Call for Participation
The ACM Computer Science Conference provides a forum for the transfer
and exchange of information in three contexts:
* Between experts or specialists in one area of computer science
and others whose specialties are marginally related or somewhat
affected by results in the first area. Communication is between
researchers in different, though possibly overlapping domains. SURVEY
PAPERS of some depth are suitable submissions.
* Among specialists in areas of computer science either too new
or too narrowly focused to have its own conference. The CSC provides
an opportunity for such researchers to meet and for others to hear of
their work. RESEARCH PAPERS, POSTER SESSION participation, and birds
of a feather sessions in the specialty area are complemented by other
CSC events: the TURING lecture, ACM awards, EXHIBITS by publishers and
vendors of computing hardware and software, and the employment
register.
* Finally, the CSC is an opportunity to gain exposure to
current research in a number of CS areas, for general interest and
knowledge updating.
