The call for papers for CIAA 2024 is available in text format here.

Overview

The International Conference on Implementation and Application of Automata (CIAA) is an annual conference in the field of theoretical computer science. The website of the conference series:
http://www.informatik.uni-giessen.de/ciaa/ciaa_welcome.html

The purpose of CIAA is to bring together members of the academic, research, and industrial community who have an interest in the theory, implementation, and application of automata and related structures. The conference concerns research on all aspects of implementation and application of automata and related structures, including theoretical aspects.

The first edition was held under the name Workshop on Implementing Automata (WIA’96) in London, Ontario, Canada, in 1996. In 2000, the workshop WIA became the conference CIAA. The last 10 editions of the conference took place in:

A “Best Paper Awards” will be presented to the author(s) of the paper judged to be the best on the basis of the referee reports. From 2014, these “Best Paper Awards” are named “Sheng Yu Awards” in honour of our late lamented colleague, Sheng YU.
