*** About ***
International Joint Conference on Theoretical Computer Science – Frontier of Algorithmic Wisdom (IJTCS-FAW 2024) will be held on July 29 – August 2, 2024, hosted by The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. We aim to provide a platform for advancing theoretical computer science and promoting the exchange of knowledge and ideas. It is the 5th IJTCS and 18th FAW (originally run as a workshop). FAW is joining IJTCS as the main track selecting high-quality submissions together with several new tracks.
