                     PROPOSALS FOR CP-2005 SITES SOLICITED   
      
   We invite proposals to host the 11th International Conference on the   
   Principles and Practice of Constraint Programming (CP-2005). Proposals are   
   due on or before 20th January 2004. These proposals will be evaluated by the   
   CP Organizing Committee (cpoc@4c.ucc.ie) and a decision made for the site   
   shortly afterwards.   
      
   The CP conferences are the premier international conferences on constraint   
   programming. They have been held annually since 1995.  CP-2004 will be held in   
   Toronto, Canada. Previous CP conferences have been held in Kinsale (Ireland),   
   Cornell (USA), Paphos (Cyprus), Singapore, Alexandria (USA), Pisa (Italy),   
   Schlos Hagenberg (Austria), Cambridge (USA), and Cassis (France). For 2005,   
   proposals from Europe are especially encouraged, as well as from countries   
   with a significant research community in constraints which have yet to hold   
   CP.   
      
   Proposals should be up to two pages of plain text and should address the   
   following numbered topics:   
      
      1. Local CP community support.   
      2. University, government and industry support, especially financial.   
      3. Proposed dates, and flexibility around these dates.   
      4. Co-located events that might be held alongside CP.   
      5. Conference and exhibition facilities (CP typically attracts around   
         200 delegates).   
      6. Accommodation and food services.   
      7. Site accessibility, attractiveness, and desirability.   
      8. Previous experience in running conferences and workshops.   
      
   If available, please include URLs to any additional information (e.g.   
   web site for the conference venue or hotel).   
      
   Proposals should be sent to the secretary of the CP organizing committee   
   preferably by email:

   regarding the suitability of the proposed dates) to the same address.
