CALL FOR INFORMAL PRESENTATIONS

There is a remarkable difference in conference style between computer 
science and mathematics conferences. Mathematics conferences allow for 
informal presentations that are prepared very shortly before the 
conference and inform the participants about current research and work in 
progress. The format of computer science conferences with pre-conference 
proceedings is not able to accommodate this form of scientific 
communication.

Continuing the tradition of past CiE conferences, also this year's CiE 
conference endeavours to get the best of both worlds. In addition to the 
formal presentations based on our LNCS proceedings volume, we invite 
researchers to present informal presentations. For this, please send us a 
brief description of your talk (between one paragraph and one page) by the 
DEADLINE:

APRIL 14, 2014

Please submit your abstract electronically, via EasyChair
<https://www.easychair.org/login.cgi?conf=cie2014>, selecting the category
"Informal Presentation".

You will be notified whether your talk has been accepted for informal 
presentation usually within a week or two after your submission.

If you intend to apply for the ASL Student Travel Award, you might need us 
to confirm that your are going to give a presentation at CiE 2014 
(applications of students who are presenting get higher priority). 
Therefore, we would like to ask you to submit your informal presentations 
by 20 March so that we can send you the notification before the ASL 
deadline of 23 March 2014.


GRANTS:

Grants for students, members of the ASL:

The Association for Symbolic Logic <http://www.aslonline.org has decided 
to sponsor some students that are ASL members and willing to attend 
CiE2014. The eligible students may apply for ASL travel funds that are 
available for sponsored meetings, see 
http://www.aslonline.org/studenttravelawards.html for detailed 
instructions on the application process. Applications should be received 
at least three months prior to the conference.

Elsevier

Under the name Elsevier Women in Computability (WiC), the publisher 
Elsevier (more precisely, the journals 'Annals of Pure and Applied Logic' 
and 'Theoretical Computer Science') is continuing the programme 
'Increasing representation of female researchers in the computability 
community' originally funded by the Elsevier Foundation (2008-2010).

This programme will fund the WiC workshop at CiE 2014, with the 
traditional WiC dinner for workshop participants afterwards, and offer up 
to four grants with modest support (up to 200 EUR) for junior female 
researchers to attend CiE 2014.  Every registered junior female researcher 
is eligible to apply. Preference will be given to researchers who present 
a paper (contributed paper or informal talk).

Applications should contain a short CV (max 1 page) and contact 
information for an academic reference. The application should be sent to 
Liesbeth De Mol <elizabeth.demol at ugent.be> before the deadline of April 1, 
2014.

EACTS Students

The European Association for Theoretical Computer Science is providing 
limited funds for student participation.  Again, preference is given to 
student presenting at the conference. Please contact the PC chairs if you 
are interested before the deadline of April 1, 2014.
