ICLP'01/CP'01: Extended Deadline for Early Registration

[Dr. Gopal Gupta]

   [More than 240 people have already registered for the joint ICLP'01/
    CP'01 conference. However, due to the recent turmoil in the world
    and the fact that many of the workshops have had late notification dates,
    the organizers of ICLP'01/CP'01 have extended the deadline for early
    registration to 2nd Nov., 2001. Please register as soon as possible,
    to take advantage of these reduced rates. Early registration also helps
    us in planning better.

The international conference  on  logic programming will  be held in
the beautiful sea resort of Paphos, Cyprus.  The  conference will be
co-located with Constraint Programming 2001 (CP'01).  The  conference 
program  includes  invited talks by Robert Kowalski, Alain Colmerauer,
and  Patrick Cousot,  and tutorials on various contemporary topics. A
number of postconference workshops are also part of the program.  The
program also includes excursions to sites around Paphos. Reduced hotel
