Hello, and I hope this message finds you well.

This is a reminder that Midwest Theory Day is drawing near.

The fifty-second Midwest Theory Day will be held on Saturday May 6, 2006 on the Bloomington campus of Indiana University. Please check the web page for updated information before the conference.

About half of the anticipated 10-or-so talks have been filled. If you'd like to give a talk, please email soon a title and abstract of your talk to Adrian German or use the submission form on the conference website. Any topic related to theoretical computer science (in a broad sense) is welcome. Titles/abstracts received after April 30 may get in only if available slots are available at that time.

If you plan to attend please respond to this message if you haven't done so before. If you plan to drive to Bloomington and park on campus (the parking lot is close to Lindley Hall where the conference will be held) you will need a parking permit: please send me e-mail to reserve one such parking permit, which you can pick up on the conference day.

A draft of the schedule of confirmed talks is available on-line, and is being updated as submissions are received. Prof. Fan Chung Graham's talk is scheduled to open the conference at 1:00pm and is also cross-listed as an IU School of Informatics Colloquium for the day. Lunch will be served in Lindley Hall (home of the CSCI Dept.) right before the above mentioned distinguished keynote address. More information, plus travel directions, will be made available at the same web address.

Midwest Theory Day (MTD) is a conference held twice a year, usually on a Saturday in April and another Saturday in December, hosted by a school in the Midwest. Anyone interested in theoretical computer science is welcome to attend. The talks are scheduled so that it is often possible to come, attend all of the talks, and return on the same day. The atmosphere is relaxed and informal. There is no registration fee and no proceedings. Faculty and grad students are invited to give a talk on their original research.

Please feel free to forward this email message to any interested person that may have not received it directly.

Best regards,
Adrian German
