[DMANET] ELC Tokyo Complexity Workshop

ELC Tokyo Complexity Workshop
March 14-17, 2013, Shinagawa Prince Hotel, Tokyo, Japan

ELC (Exploring the Limits of Computation) is a five-year project
started in 2012 in Japan, focusing on various aspects of
computational complexity theory. As a kickoff event of this project,
we are planning to have a workshop during March 14-17 in Tokyo,
inviting the following distinguished speakers. We welcome any of you
interested in computational complexity theory to participate in this
workshop. We are planning also some satellite seminars before and
after the workshop. Please see the following web page for further
information.
