Description:
CARI 2002 is the sixth conference of a series dedicated to African Research in Computer Science and Applied Mathematics, fruits of an international cooperation between African universities, French research centers and international institutions. After 10 years, the conference comes back to Yaounde, the place of its first issue.

The geographical distribution spreads over thirty countries, fifteen of which are African, covering the whole continent.

All the CARI activities (conferences, research actions, summer schools, etc.) are coordinated by a Permanent Committee established at CARI'94 and composed of two bodies: the delegates of African researchers and the delegates of partner institutions (the present list of its members is given below). Its missions are:

identifying joint projects between African universities, supporting them through scientific partnerships with northern institutes and helping them to apply for funding, organizing the biennial CARI conference as well as regional meetings on specific themes, supporting the development of a network between African universities and research institutes by providing a technical assistance in setting up Internet.

The CARI experience is no longer a single conference but a fertile meeting ground for encouraging high level education and research in computer science in Africa. It aims at gathering high level European and African researchers and decisionmakers in the fields of information and communication science and technology and their applications.

The programme committee especially wishes to promote research results obtained from joint African projects and involving young researchers working for their Ph'D, entirely or part time in Africa.

The 2002 edition will comprise two days of tutorials preceding the four days of conference.
