International Colloquium on Automata, Languages and Programming

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

ICALP, the International Colloquium on Automata, Languages and Programming is an academic conference organized annually by the European Association for Theoretical Computer Science and held in different locations around Europe. Its proceedings are published in Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Science.

Traditionally, the conference was thematically split into two tracks on "Algorithms, Automata, Complexity and Games" (Track A) and Logic, "Semantics, and Theory of Programming" (Track B), corresponding to the (at least until 2005) two mainstreams of the journal Theoretical Computer Science. Beginning with the 2005 conference, a third track was added in order to allow the deeper coverage of a particular topic. From 2005 until 2008, the third track was dedicated to "Security and Cryptography Foundations" (Track C). According to the Bulletin of the European Association for Theoretical Computer Science, beginning with 2009, the third track will be devoted to the topic "Foundations of Modern Networks: Models, Algorithms, and Information Management" (tentative title).[1]
