The Departments of Computer Science and Mathematical Sciences at Appalachian State University are pleased to announce the Twelfth North Carolina Mini-Conference on Graph Theory, Combinatorics, and Computing. The conference will be held on Friday, April 13th, 2007.

This year the conference will be held in the Bernhardt Room at the Broyhill Center (same building as last year). Parking is available outside the center.

The main goal of this conference is to provide a venue in which students can present their work, and so we especially encourage students (undergraduate and graduate) to consider giving talks. Each speaker will have 20 minutes for his/her presentation with 5 additional minutes for questions.

A conference luncheon will take place again this year. During the luncheon, participants will have the opportunity to interact with one another -- discussing areas of common interest and making valuable connections with others in our region. The luncheon will be free for everyone who has registered. We are delighted to welcome Brian Dean as our keynote luncheon speaker this year. We have a very preliminary schedule of talks here. Let me know if there are any errors, missing talks, wrong titles, or bad times. There is a lot of flexibility built-in to the schedule.

Our aim is for this conference to be beneficial to both the students and the faculty of our region. We hope that you will be able to be with us on this day, and we hope that you will encourage others to attend.

To register for the conference, please complete the online registration form. Directions this year will be sent to you in early April.
