The NSF-CBMS Regional Research Conference, Structure and Decompositions of Graphs, to be held during the period August 12--16 2002 at East Tennessee State University (ETSU), will:feature ten keynote lectures by one of the most prominent researchers in structural graph theory;allow mathematicians at ETSU to utilize their past experience with CBMS and other conferences to offer a very high level of organization;bring together a diverse collection of researchers into a communion of learning; andattract a group of scientists with primary interests in a variety of fields.The Principal Lecturer (PL) Robin Thomas of the Georgia Institute of Technology will deliver ten cohesive lectures that build bridges between various fields; expose the audience to dominant themes and trends in graph theory; and lay the foundation for many research partnerships. A dedicated and inspirational researcher, Robin's impact on future generations of mathematical talent is already evident. His dynamic lectures are well known for their organization and easy availability. The conference lectures will survey major ideas and recent results in the area of graph structure and decompositions. Topics to be covered in depth include graph planarity; tree decompositions; the graph minors project; spatial embeddings of graphs; Pfaffian orientations; and a tantalizing set of possibilities for directed graphs. The PL has agreed to deliver to the CBMS a monograph entitled "Structure and Decompositions of Graphs" by June 1, 2003; it will subsequently be published by the AMS. He will give two lectures on each of the five days of the conference. Several leading authorities will be present at the conference, and there will be four invited auxiliary talks that put the keynote lectures in an even wider perspective. Lectures will be held in a multi-media classroom in the D.P. Culp Student Center on the ETSU campus. Three classrooms will be set aside all week for informal discussions between participants. Attendees will stay in single efficiency-style apartments on campus; eat three meals in the Culp Center cafeteria; have full access to the ETSU athletic and library facilities; and have accounts in the Departmental Technology Lab. Several organized social activities will be planned, including sharing the region's beauty on a three hour hike of the Appalachian Trail.A conference website will be created and updated regularly as attendees reap the benefits of Thomas' lectures by starting research projects; publishing papers, etc.

将于2002年8月12日至16日在东田纳西州立大学（ETSU）举行的NSF-CBMS区域研究会议“图的结构和分解”将包括：由结构图理论领域最杰出的研究人员之一作的10次主旨演讲;使ETSU的数学家能够利用他们过去在CBMS和其他会议上的经验提供一个非常高水平的组织;将不同的研究人员聚集在一起，共同学习;并吸引一群对各个领域感兴趣的科学家。格鲁吉亚理工学院的首席讲师（PL）罗宾托马斯将提供十个有凝聚力的讲座，在各个领域之间建立桥梁;使观众接触到图论中的主导主题和趋势;并为许多研究伙伴关系奠定基础。 作为一名专注而鼓舞人心的研究人员，罗宾对未来几代数学人才的影响已经显而易见。 他的动态讲座是众所周知的组织和容易获得。 会议讲座将调查的主要思想和最近的成果，在该地区的图结构和分解。 深入讨论的主题包括图的平面性;树分解;图未成年人项目;图的空间嵌入; Pfavian方向;以及一组诱人的有向图的可能性。 PL已同意在2003年6月1日前向CBMS提供一份名为“图形的结构和分解”的专题论文，该论文随后将由AMS出版。 他将在为期五天的会议中每一天作两次演讲。 几个主要的权威将出席会议，并将有四个邀请辅助会谈，把主题演讲在一个更广泛的角度。 讲座将在ETSU校园D. P. Culp学生中心的多媒体教室举行。 整个星期将留出三间教室供参与者进行非正式讨论。 与会者将留在校园内的单一效率式公寓;在卡尔普中心自助餐厅吃三餐;可以完全使用ETSU的体育和图书馆设施;并在部门技术实验室拥有账户。 几个有组织的社会活动将计划，包括分享该地区的美丽的阿巴拉契亚小径的三个小时的徒步旅行。一个会议网站将被创建和定期更新，与会者收获的好处托马斯的讲座开始研究项目;发表论文等。
