CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

 

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES

Estonian Computer Science Theory Days started in 2002 and have been organized biannually since then. In Latvia, a similar event, Computer Science Days, has been organized several times since 2011. The first joint Estonian-Latvian Theory Days were held in 2010. This year, we (the Faculty of Computing, University of Latvia, with the help of our Estonian colleagues) are organizing the sixth such event. The main goal of the Theory Days is to let the theoretical computer scientists of our two countries to get acquainted with the work of each other (however, people from other countries are welcome to participate as well). In particular, the main audience is intended to be the graduate students in the roles of both listeners and presenters.
