The São Paulo Advanced School of Computing is a biennial academic
event organized by the Institute of Mathematics and Statistics of the
University of São Paulo (IME-USP), the Institute of Mathematics and
Computer Sciences of the University of São Paulo (ICMC-USP) and the
Institute of Computing of the University of Campinas (IC-UNICAMP),  with
financial support by FAPESP. Its goal is to exhibit research in
Computer Science done in the State of São Paulo and attract young
talents from Brazil and other countries to carry out their PhD and
post-doctoral studies in its institutions. The event covers themes in
areas in which the three organizing institutions show excellence.

This 1st edition of the School will take place at IME-USP, from July
12th to July 17th, 2010, and the theme is Image Processing and
Visualization. The School will include the following activities: short
intensive courses (minicourses), presentations of graduate programs
offered by the three São Paulo institutions and their current research
projects, short presentations by advanced participating students and
some invited talks. The minicourses will be taught by the following
experts:

Alexandre Xavier Falcão (IC-UNICAMP)
Alexandru C. Telea (University of Groningen, Netherlands)
Jayaram K. Udupa (University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia)

There are available slots for a total of 65 students and 10
researchers. Among those, 30 foreign students and 15 Brazilian
students will be selected to receive financial support for travel and
hotel costs. The selection of students getting financial support will
be done by the organizing committee through analysis of a letter of the
candidate describing his/her intentions to attend the school,
description of the candidate's current research project, curricula and
recommendation letters. The selection of further participants will
also be based on those criteria. For more details, visit the
registration page. The deadline for registration is May 15th.
