As with the journal Theoretical Computer Science (TCS), the scientific program of the Colloquium will be split into two parts: Track A of the meeting will cover Algorithms, Automata, Complexity and Games, while Track B covers Logic, Semantics and Theory of Programming. The full program, containing 84 accepted papers and 6 invited contributions is now available at the ICALP2003 website ( http://www.win.tue.nl/icalp2003/Schedule.html ). Invited speakers Jan Bergstra: Polarized process algebra and program equivalence Anne Condon: Problems in RNA secondary structure prediction and design Amos Fiat: Some issues regarding search, censorship, and anonimity in peer to peer networks Petra Mutzel: The SPQR-tree data structure in graph drawing Doron Peled: Model checking and testing combined Moshe Vardi: Logic and automata, a match made in heaven Workshops and surrounding events In the weekends preceeding and following ICALP2003 nine workshops of interest to the EACTS-community will be held at the conference venue, a list is available at conference website ( http://www.win.tue.nl/icalp2003/Workshops.html ). In the week before ICALP (June 24-27), two more international conferences in computer science are hosted by the TU Eindhoven at the same venue: the 24th International Conference on Application and Theory of Petri Nets, ATPN 2003, and the Conference on Business Process Management, BPM 2003. Besides these scientific events, a number of other activities such as excursions, a social event, a festive award presentation, and an event on education in theoretical computer science are part of ICALP2003. For a complete overview, see the "Events" section of the website ( http://www.win.tue.nl/icalp2003/Events.html ).
