CP2000
Sixth International Conference on Principles and Practice of
Constraint Programming
Call For CP2000 Post-Conference Workshop Proposals
The Sixth International Conference on Principles and Practice of Constraint
Programming (CP2000) will be held in Singapore from September 18-22, 2000.
It is the main conference devoted to all aspects of computing with constraints
including: algorithms, applications, environments, languages, models, systems.
In conjunction with the main conference, several post-conference
workshops are planned for the last day of the conference on September 22nd.
One role of the post-conference workshops is to promote new and emerging
areas within the field of constraints. A second role is to provide a platform
for the presentation of preliminary work or novel ideas in a less
formal way than the conference itself. It is an opportunity to disseminate
work in progress, particularly so for new researchers. Finally the workshops
may provide a venue for presenting more specialised topics and
opportunities for more intensive discussions and exchange of ideas.
The topics of the workshops can cover any area related to constraints
and any related cross-disciplinary areas.
The format of the workshop will be determined by the organizers.
Workshops can vary in length with an expected duration ranging from
half a day up to one day. Having two or three co-organizers for a
workshop is strongly advised.
