The series of annual Asian Computing Science Conferences (ASIAN) was started in 1995 to provide a forum for researchers in computer science from the Asian region and to promote interaction with researchers from other regions. The first three conferences were held, respectively, in Bangkok, Singapore, and Katmandu. In addition to sponsorship from the host countries, they were also held in partnership with INRIA, France, and the UNU/IIST, Macau. The proceedings were published as Lecture Notes in Computer Science 1023, 1179, and 1345 from Springer-Verlag. Although the scope of the conferences was a broad coverage of Computer Science, there was a focus on the more theoretical areas of algorithms, programming, concurrency and parallelism, networking and security. The 1998 conference will continue to emphasize the conceptual areas of Computer Science, though papers in all areas will be considered. The following themes represent the areas of focus for this year:
The proceedings are expected to be published by Springer-Verlag in the LNCS series. We also plan to edit a special journal issue dedicated to ASIAN'98 conference, expected to be published from International Journal of Foundations of Computer Science. In addition to regular papers, we hope to accept posters, which will appear as two-page abstracts in the proceedings. Papers and posters must be presented at the conference by one of the authors.
