Symposium on Geometric Structures, Algorithms, and Applications 2012 (GSAA
2012)

               http://www.cs.fredonia.edu/iwcia12/gsaa.html

Registration to IWCIA will allow participation in GSAA and viceversa.

"Important dates" are the same as for IWCIA.

Submissions will be made and handled via the same conference management
system.

A submitted paper can be considered for both conferences.
