   163 We expect the conference will consist of four days of fully refereed  | 
         | 
   164 research paper presentations, invited talks, and poster presentations  | 
         | 
   165 for work-in-progress. Moreover, half a day will be dedicated to an  | 
         | 
   166 excursion, followed by the conference dinner in the evening.  We aim  | 
         | 
   167 to provide plenty of time between the formal sessions for attendees to  | 
         | 
   168 mingle and converse, since we believe this to be a very valuable  |

   172 As in previous years we will seek to publish the main proceedings as a  | 
         | 
   173 volume of Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Science, and also to  | 
         | 
   174 continue the tradition of offering a venue for the presentation of  | 
         | 
   175 work-in-progress. The latter will be published as a separate  | 
         | 
   176 volume. Both volumes will be prepared in time to be available for the  | 
         | 
   177 conference.  |
