I hope this is interesting enough to some of you to justify the
slightly off-topic posting of this message.

COMPSTAT 2004, 16th Symposium of IASC, Prague August 23-27, 2004
http://compstat2004.cuni.cz
Statistical computing provides the link between statistical theory and
applied statistics. As at previous COMPSTATs, the scientific programme
will cover all aspects of this link, from the development and
implementation of new statistical ideas through to user experiences
and software evaluation. The programme should appeal to anyone working
in statistics and using computers, whether in universities, industrial
companies, government agencies, research institutes or as software
developers.
Following extensive discussions over the last year, ERS IASC have
introduced a number of changes to the format of the Scientific
Programme for COMPSTAT 2004 in Prague. The motivation for these
changes was to try to revitalise the programme by giving more focus to
the individual sessions, involve more people in the planning of
sessions, and make links with other societies like Interface and IFCS
involved in statistical computing.
The scientific programme for COMPSTAT 2004 will be made up as follows.
