23rd International Symposium on Fundamentals of Computation Theory
September 12-15, 2021
Athens, Greece (virtually)
https://www.corelab.ntua.gr/fct2021
==========================================================
The Symposium on Fundamentals of Computation Theory (FCT) was established in 1977 as a forum for researchers interested in all aspects of theoretical computer science, and in particular algorithms, complexity, formal and logical methods. FCT is a biennial series of conferences, previously held in Poland, Germany, Hungary, Sweden, Russia, Romania, Latvia, Norway, United Kingdom, France, and Denmark. The last five Symposia were held in Oslo (2011), Liverpool (2013), Gdansk (2015), Bordeaux (2017), and Copenhagen (2019).
FCT 2021 will be held completely online, via the Zoom platform, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It will be hosted by the National Technical University of Athens.

It will take place on Sunday, September 12, 17:00-18:30 Athens time (UTC+3). Presentations will be short and will be selected through a light, abstract-based reviewing process. Abstracts of selected presentations will appear on the conference's website. Young researchers interested in presenting recent or ongoing work in the Forum should send a title and abstract to fct2021_at_corelab_dot_ntua_dot_gr by September 9.
