Please include the following information with your abstract: title, author(s) with the presenter marked by an asterisk (*), and affiliation and e-mail address of the presenter.

Authors will have the option of submitting papers based on the conference talks to the Journal of Combinatorial Mathematics and Combinatorial Computing (JCMCC). A specific volume will be set aside for all such papers that are accepted. All the papers will be subject to the normal refereeing standards and procedure of the Journal, except that survey papers by the invited speakers only, are also considered.

We follow the Math model (submission AFTER the conference), not the CS model, and arrangements will be announced at the conference.
