Background and objectives
Estonian Computer Science Theory Days started in 2002 and have been organized many times since then. In Latvia, a similar event, Computer Science Days, has been organized several times since 2011. The first joint Estonian-Latvian Theory Days were held in 2010. This year, we (Faculty of Science and Technology, University of Latvia, with the help of our Estonian colleagues) are organizing the 10th such event. The main goal of the Theory Days is to let the theoretical computer scientists of our two countries to get acquainted with the work of each other. However, people from other countries are welcome to participate as well. The main audience is intended to be the graduate students in the roles of both listeners and presenters.
