The MEMICS 2008 workshop is organized jointly by the Faculty of Informatics,
Masaryk University, and the Faculty of Information Technology, Brno University
of Technology.

The aim: To provide a forum for doctoral students interested in applications
of mathematical and engineering methods in computer science with a special
focus on the various aspects of parallel and distributed systems.

Topics: Submissions are invited especially in the following (but not
exclusive) areas: parallel and distributed computing, GRID computing,
computer networks and applications, computer security, theory of formal
languages, formal verification, simulation, software and hardware testing and
dependability, computer architectures, quantum computing.

Invited talks: Several invited talks by distinguished researchers from
various areas of interest of the workshop will be a part of the programme.

Regular papers: Students are invited to register a paper before September 10,
2008 and submit the paper (not exceeding 8 pages in the LNCS style) before
September 17, 2008. A selection of the best papers will be done during the
workshop, and their authors will be awarded. Authors will be notified of
acceptance by October 15, 2008. Detailed instructions are available at the
conference web http://www.memics.cz/.

Presentations: Students may also present recent outstanding work, if it has
been (or will be) presented at a leading computer science conference.
Presentations to be included in the programme will be selected on the basis
of a one-page abstract, which interested students are invited to submit.
The one-page abstracts will be published in the proceedings.

The proceedings will be available at the workshop in printed form.

Venue: The workshop will be held in Znojmo, a beautiful town on the
Austrian borders famous for a number of examples of medieval architecture
and nearby vineyards. Tourist attractions here include the Gothic Church of
St. Nicholas, the town hall's Gothic tower, and the Romanesque rotunda.
There is also an ancient castle atop a nearby hill.
