Objective of this workshop/Summer School is to promote the discovery and dissemination of high quality teaching and research in theoretical computer science and computational algorithms. The need of sophisticated algorithms is increasing in all areas of applications due to increasing size and complexity of the problems. Workshop is intended for professionals, teachers, research scholars and software engineers.


If your answer is yes, then join us at Thapar University Campus, Patiala with other motivated, talented and young teachers and researchers from across the world.
