I Winter School and Workshop on Theoretical Computer Science

(In Portuguese)

The I Winter School and Workshop on Theoretical Computer Science (WEITC 2017, acronym in Portuguese) aims at bringing together students and researchers from all over the country in Theoretical Computer Science to discuss their work in a friendly and live environment. In particular, WEITC wishes to provide a constructive environment for students, where they may present their work, have comments and suggestions from experienced researchers, and get to know the state-of-the-art in Theoretical Computer Science.

It will be hosted by Instituto de Computação from Universidade Federal Fluminense from October 1 to October 4, 2017. There will be four tutorials and eight invited speeches from senior Brazilian and international speakers. Both undergraduate and graduate students will have a chance of presenting their work on several technical sessions. The proceedings will be in the form of a booklet with (extended) abstracts of submitted work.

Research areas

All areas related with Theoretical Computer Science are welcome. Examples are:

  • Algorithms
  • Programming languages
  • Logic
  • Formal methods
  • Combinatorial optimization
  • Category theory
  • Graph theory

Submission process

Authors should submit abstracts of up to one page either in English or Portuguese. Both on going and in final states of development are welcome. Abstracts should be formatted in LaTeX following the Workshop' style. Submission should be done using WEITC's EasyChair installation.

Important dates

  • Deadline for submissions: July 10, 2017.
  • Event: August 1, 2017.

Registration

Registration is free of charge. It is necessary to register using the following form.
