SPAA '00  

Thirteenth ACM Symposium on Parallel Algorithms and Architectures

July 4-6, 2001
Crete Island, Greece

The Thirteenth Annual ACM Symposium on Parallel Algorithms and Architectures (SPAA '01) is sponsored by the ACM Special Interest Groups on Algorithms and Computation Theory (SIGACT) and Computer Architecture (SIGARCH) and organized in cooperation with the European Association for Theoretical Computer Science and Computer Technology Institute (CTI)

This year SPAA is co-located with The 33rd Annual ACM Symposium on Theory of Computing (STOC) (July 6-8, 2001) and The 28th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages and Programming (ICALP) (July 8-12, 2001).

SPAA '01 will feature contributed papers, each with a 25-minute talk, and SPAA revue papers, each with a 10-minute talk. The SPAA revue is for brief communications including work in progress or demos.

Expanded Scope
This year, SPAA defines "parallel" very broadly to encompass any computational "device" that can perform multiple operations or tasks simultaneously. As a consequence, SPAA 2001 covers all traditional parallel and distributed architectures, plus new aspects including satellite networks, the web, quantum and DNA computing, etc. For more information, see the call for papers below.


Local information
The conference will be held at the Knossos Royal Village - Aldemar. It is located about 25 km east of Heraklion. Room rates are $155 double, $112-$132 single. Here's some local information including hotel information.
