LATA - Language and Automata Theory and Applications. The 6th International Conference on Language and Automata Theory and Applications, March 5-9, 2012, A Coruña, Spain.
The history of LATA starts in 2007. After three consecutive editions organized in Tarragona, the 4th edition (LATA 2010) took place in Trier, Germany while the 5th edition was back in Tarragona. Now it is the time for a new place to host LATA 2012, this time we go to A Coruña, Galicia, Spain.

We notice that for regular papers there are allocated 25 minutes. Our recommendation is to consider the presentation time as 23 minutes and 2 minutes for discussions. There will be one computer available from the organizers and usually materials are loaded during the breaks, to minimize the time between two presentations.
With your agreement, the slides will be published on our web after the conference. It would be nice to have a photo of yourself on the title page. The second page could also contain several pictures with your co-authors, colleagues, home institution. Feel free to use any program to make the presentation, however we expect that Latex will be mostly used. As a final recommendation, regardless the program used for preparation, bring a pdf version of your presentation as well.
