The 17th Annual Meeting of Asian Association for Algorithms and Computation (AAAC) will take place at the Ocean University of China, Qingdao, China on May 23-24, 2026. We invite submissions of abstracts presenting original research or surveys of existing results in theoretical computer science. The meeting will be held in person, and at least one author of each accepted submission is required to register and present the talk on-site. AAAC was founded in 2007 and its main aim is to promote collaborations in theoretical computer science within the region.
