          Paper submission deadline     June 27, 1998

The series of annual Asian Computing Science Conferences (ASIAN) was started in
1995 to provide a forum for researchers in computer science from the Asian
region and to promote interaction with researchers from other regions. The first
three conferences were held, respectively, in Bangkok, Singapore, and
Katmandu. In addition to sponsorship from the host countries, they were also
held in partnership with INRIA, France, and the UNU/IIST, Macau. The proceedings
were published as Lecture Notes in Computer Science 1023, 1179, and 1345 from
Springer-Verlag.

Although the scope of the conferences was a broad coverage of Computer Science,
there was a focus on the more theoretical areas of algorithms, programming,
concurrency and parallelism, networking and security.  The 1998 conference will
continue to emphasize the conceptual areas of Computer Science, though papers in
all areas will be considered.  The following themes represent the areas of focus
for this year:

 * Formal Reasoning and Verification
 * Programming Languages
 * Data and Knowledge Representation
 * Networking and Web Computing

We solicit submissions on original research not published or submitted for
publication elsewhere. Submission procedure is described below.

The proceedings are expected to be published by Springer-Verlag in the LNCS
series.  Plans are also being made to publish a special issue, in an
international journal, of papers selected from ASIAN'98.  In addition to
regular papers, we hope to accept posters, which will appear as two-page
abstracts in the proceedings.  Papers and posters must be presented at the
conference by one of the authors.
