The 10th Annual Conference on Theory and Application of Models of Computation 
(TAMC 2013 http://www.cs.hku.hk/tamc2013/) will be held in Hong Kong, China, 
from May 20 to May 22, 2013. TAMC aims at bringing together a wide range of 
researchers with interests in computational theory and applications.

The main themes of the conference are computability, complexity, and 
algorithms. Typical but not exclusive topics of interest include:

algebraic computation
algorithmic coding theory

Submission instructions: Authors should submit an extended abstract (not a 
full paper). The submission should contain a scholarly exposition of 
ideas, techniques, and results, including motivation and a clear 
comparison with related work. The length of the extended abstract should 
not exceed ten (10) letter-sized pages (not including bibliography and 
appendices.) Submitted papers must describe work not previously published. 
They must not be submitted simultaneously to another conference with 
refereed proceedings. Research that is already submitted to a journal may 
be submitted to TAMC13, provided that (a) the PC chair is notified in 
advance that this is the case, and (b) it is not scheduled for journal 
publication before the conference.

Proceedings: The TAMC proceedings will be published in the Lecture Notes 
in Computer Science Series by Springer (http://www.springer.com/lncs). 
Authors of accepted papers are expected to present their work at the 
conference. Special issues of the journals Theoretical Computer Science 
and Mathematical Structures in Computer Science devoted to a selected set 
of accepted papers of the conference are planned.
