DMTCS'99 and CATS'99  will be part of the Australasian Computer Science
Week (ACSW'99).

Original papers are solicited in {\sl all\/} areas of discrete mathematics 
and theoretical computer science.  Typical, but not exclusive, topics of 
interest include: 
(a) abstract data types and specifications,
(b) algorithms and data structures,
(c) automata and formal languages,
(d) computability and  complexity,
(e) computational algebra, biology, geometry, logic and number theory,
(f) concurrency, distributed systems and parallel computing,
(g) constructive mathematics,
(h) discrete mathematics, combinatorial computing and category theory,
(i) formal semantics, specification, synthesis and verification,
(j) hybrid systems and nonmonotonic logic.

Authors are invited to submit papers either in hard copy by post, or
electronically by email, to the address below. Electronic submissions
should be in  PostScript format, printable in a standard Unix environment.
\LaTeX{} source of final versions of accepted papers will be required.
Submissions should not exceed 15 pages and include an e-mail address of
the corresponding author.

Joint submissions to other conferences are {\sl not\/} permitted.
At least one author of each accepted paper is expected to register by
Nov.~6th and present their work at the conference.  The proceedings will
be published by Springer-Verlag, Singapore in the DMTCS Series, and will
be made available during the conference.
