Call for Papers
9th Latin American Theoretical INformatics - LATIN 2010
http://latin10.org/
Oaxaca, Mexico
April 19-22, 2010
A series of Symposia in Theoretical Computer Science was launched in
1992, to be held in Latin America: LATIN (Latin American Theoretical
INformatics). This is the ninth event of the series, after São Paulo,
Brazil (1992), Valparaiso, Chile (1995), Campinas, Brazil (1998),
Punta del Este, Uruguay (2000), Cancun, Mexico (2002), Buenos Aires,
Argentina (2004),Valdivia, Chile (2006) and Buzios, Rio de Janeiro,
Brazil (2008). The proceedings of this edition of LATIN will be
published by Springer-Verlag, in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Series, as in previous LATINs.
We seek papers presenting original research on theoretical computer
science, including, but not limited to: algorithms (approximation,
online, randomized, algorithmic game theory, parameterized complexity,
etc.), automata theory and formal languages, coding theory and data
compression, algorithmic graph theory and combinatorics, complexity
theory, computational algebra, computational biology, computational
geometry, computational number theory, cryptography, theoretical
aspects of databases, information retrieval and networking, data
structures, networks, logic in computer science, machine learning,
mathematical programming, parallel and distributed computing, pattern
matching, quantum computing and random structures. More information is
available at the conference web site, http://latin10.org/ .
IMPORTANT DATES
* Paper Submission September 21, 2009
* Acceptance Notification November 20, 2009
* Submission of the Final version December 10, 2009
ABSTRACTS
Authors are invited to submit an extended abstract in English no
longer than 12 pages on letter-size paper using at least 11-point
font in LNCS format, including the bibliography. Additional necessary
details and omitted proofs must be included in a clearly marked
appendix that will be read at the discretion of the program committee.
Simultaneous submission of papers to any other conference with published
proceedings or submitting previously published papers is not allowed.
Instructions for electronic submissions will be posted at the conference web
page.

About Oaxaca
Oaxaca or the "Jade City" is located in a beautiful valley surrounded
by mountains, 500 km south of Mexico City. The city of Oaxaca was
founded in 1521 and is the capital of the state of the same name. The
historical center of Oaxaca has been declared by UNESCO to be a "World
Heritage Site" because of its colonial architecture. In the area there
are a large number of archaeological sites, which housed civilizations
that had a high level of artistic development, such as the Zapotec and
Mixtec. Not far lie the beautiful beaches of Huatulco and the southern
Mexican tropical rain forest. It has a very pleasant climate,
characteristic of high altitude tropical sites.
The city is easily explored on foot. The colonial heart of the city is
immaculate and clean. It is laid out in a simple grid, with several
downtown streets now pedestrian corridors. The main square of the city
or Zócalo is one of Mexico's prettiest. The shaded plaza is
beautifully landscaped and surrounded by grand old trees, Spanish
colonnades, restaurants, and outdoor cafes. People watching is a
popular pastime. A few blocks north of the Zócalo is the magnificent
16th-century monastery and church of Santo Domingo. It is without a
doubt one of Mexico's most ornately decorated churches. The interior
is a mosaic of gold scroll with multicolored relief set on a clean
white background. Inside this beautiful compound, Gothic, Romantic,
and even Arabic styles were meld together with the native building
style of the mason workers who built it. The austerity of the façade
contrasts with the exuberant Baroque of its interior.
There are numerous attractions in the surrounding areas. No trip to
Oaxaca is complete without a visit to Monte Albán, one of Mexico's
great treasures. Built on a hilltop flattened by the Zapotec Indians
over 2,500 years ago, Monte Albán was once a holy city of more than
25,000 inhabitants. The expansive ruins consist of a great central
plaza surrounded by buildings, temples, an observatory, ball court and
burial tombs. Magnificent stone carvings on vertical stone slabs date
to 700b.c.
