About ICTAC 2009
ICTAC 2009 is the 6th International Colloquium on Theoretical Aspects of Computing, the latest in a series founded by the International Institute for Software Technology of the United Nations University (UNU-IIST). The main purpose of ICTAC is to bring together practitioners and researchers from academia, industry and government to present research and to exchange ideas and experience addressing challenges in both theoretical aspects of computing and in the exploitation of theory through methods and tools for system development. The previous four ICTAC events were held in Guiyang, China (2004), Hanoi, Vietnam (2005), Tunis, Tunisia (2006), Macau (2007) and Istanbul (2008).
Workshops
The main conference is surrounded by workshops and a summer school. See the web page for more details.

Paper Submissions
ICTAC 2009 calls for two types of contributions: RESEARCH PAPERS and TOOL DEMONSTRATION PAPERS. Both types of contributions will appear in the LNCS proceedings and have oral presentations at the conference. Papers should be written in English in LNCS format.
RESEARCH PAPERS
Research papers should contain original research, and sufficient detail to assess the merits and relevance of the contribution. Submissions reporting on industrial case studies are welcome, and should describe both strengths and weaknesses in sufficient depth. Research papers should be no more than 15 pages.
TOOL DEMONSTRATION PAPERS
Tool demonstration papers present tools based on aforementioned theories or fall into the above application areas. Tool demonstration papers allow researchers to stress the technical and practical side, illustrating how one can apply the theoretic contributions in practice. Tool demonstration papers should be no more than 6 pages.
As usual, submissions to the conference must not have been published or be concurrently considered for publication elsewhere. All submissions will be judged on the basis of originality, contribution to the field, technical and presentation quality, and relevance to the conference. Submission constitutes a commitment to attend and present a paper, if accepted.
Proceedings of ICTAC 2009 will be published by Springer in the LNCS series.
