National Conference of Theoretical Computer Science（NCTCS）has become the main academic activities in the area of theoretical computer science and artificial intelligence. Up until 2017, NCTCS has been successfully held over 20 cities and for 34 times. It provides a platform for scholars in theoretical computer science or related areas to exchange ideas and do cooperation. 

Sponsored by the China Computer Forum (CCF), NCTCS 2017 is hosted by the CCF Theoretical Computer Science Committee and School of Computer Science Technology at Huazhong University of Science (HUST). It will be held on October 14, 2017 to October 15 in Wuhan, Hubei, China. The conference will invite researchers with high reputation in the field of theoretical computer science domestically and internationally to give keynote speech, carry out a wide range of academic activities and introduce the recent advanced research results. 

NCTCS2017 calls for high quality research papers, and requirements are as follows:
