The first meeting was in Paris in 1990, followed by meetings in London, Tucson, Padova, Pacific Grove, Helsinki and Laguna Beach. Papers in all areas related to combinatorial pattern matching and its applications will be considered, including, but not limited to, string algorithms, pattern recognition, applications in molecular biology, text searching, information retrieval, symbolic computing, and data compression. Papers reporting on original research unpublished elsewhere are primarily sought. Surveys of important results, especially recent ones, are also invited. Proceedings will be published in the Springer-Verlag series Lecture Notes in Computer Science. The goal is to keep the attendance to under 100 participants to allow ample time for informal interaction. Thus, the participation will require advance registration. To submit a paper, please send 12 copies of an extended abstract (5-10 pages - standard, single-spacing single-column 11 pt or 12 pt format) to the address below by January 27, 1997. This is a strict deadline. Papers arriving after that date will not be considered. Please include your e-mail address. Electronic submissions will be accepted but only in the form of postscript files. Authors will be notified by March 24, 1997. Camera-ready manuscripts will be due April 21, 1997. Submissions should be sent to: Jotun Hein, CPM 97 Department of Ecology and Genetics Institute of Biological Sciences University of Aarhus Ny Munkegade, Building 540 DK-8000 Aarhus C., Denmark e-mail address: cpm97@daimi.aau.dk Program Committee: A.

Sussman Local Arrangements: J. Hein, C. Storm The city of Aarhus is located on the Jutland peninsula and lies along the Aarhus Bay. It is the second largest city in Denmark with approximately 265,000 inhabitants. The city is both a metropolis and a village: it offers cultural activities, shopping, and commerce, but you can still reach the countryside within twenty minutes from the city centre. The symposium will be held at locations on the University of Aarhus campus approximately one kilometer from the city centre. For the latest information see: http://www.daimi.aau.dk/~cpm97
