Mihai Patrascu Seminar in Theoretical Computer Science
The aim of this seminar is to present topics of interest in Theoretical Computer Science.This seminar address not only to researchers, but also to students interested to learn about topics in TCS such as: formal languages and automata, graphs theory, bioinformatics, complexity and approximation algorithms, applications of various fields of mathematics in Computer Science.
During the seminar there will be presentations about interesting existing results, but also original contributions and open problems, in an interactive manner.
Each seminar will last about one hour and the talks are announced via e-mail (theory-seminar@googlegroups.com) and to the schedule on the site.
If you have any subject connected to the research interests of this group that you would like to present at the seminar or you want to receive news about this seminar, please register here theory-seminar@googlegroups.com or contact Alex Popa (alexandru.popa@fmi.unibuc.ro).
Everybody is welcome to attend.
