    Demonstrations of Practical Applications designed by the
   institutes of the Siberian Branch of the RAS and Russian firms.
    A contest between Russian firms in the field of IT and
   instrument-making.

   ACIT-CS 2005 will take place in conjunction with the following

   LANGUAGES OF THE CONFERENCE 
   Working languages of the Conference are Russian and English.
   Translation will be provided. All papers should be in English and will

   LOCATION
   ACIT-CS 2005 will take place at the House of Scientists in
   Akademgorodok, a community located outside the Siberian city of
   Novosibirsk. Akademgorodok was established by Russian academics in
   1957 and has been credited to be the first scientific town in the
   world. Since its creation, Akademgorodok has quickly become a powerful
   scientific complex encompassing more than 20 scientific institutes,
   including the Novosibirsk State University.
   Novosibirsk, the third largest city in Russia, is situated along the
   Ob River in the Southern part of Siberia. Once known for its timber
   and fur skins, Novosibirsk has become a large industrial, cultural,
   scientific, and transportation center in Eastern Russia. In addition
   to breathtaking scenery, Novosibirsk offers many cultural and
   recreational attractions including the Opera and Ballet, the
   Philharmonic Society, the Botanical Gardens, and the Palace of Sports.
   Conference participants will be accommodated at the Golden Valley
   Hotel. An optional one-day tour by boat on the Ob River or the Ob Sea
   is planned for the conference participants and their guests.
