=========================================================================
The focus of the Asian Applied Computing Conference is primarily to
bring the research in computer science closer to practical
applications. The conference is aimed primarily at topics which have
immediate practical benefits. By hosting the conference in the
developing nations in Asia it aims to provide a forum for engaging
both the academic and the commercial sector in that region.
The first conference 'Information Technology Prospects and Challenges'
(ITPC-2003) was held in May 2003 in Kathmandu, Nepal. This year the
conference name has changed to Asian Applied Computing Conference to
reflect both the regional and application oriented nature of the
conference.
The theme in this year's conference will be on the following
topics. Other topics that have industrial and regional relevance would
be considered.
