The 13th International Conference on WORDS (WORDS'21) will be held in Rouen, September 13-17 2021.

The conference will take place on the Mont-Saint-Aignan site of the university of Rouen Normandie, in the amphitheater of the CURIB building (building 25). 

Due to the pandemic situation and the uncertainties about the reception conditions in september in Rouen, the conference will finally take place entirely online using Zoom for the talks and Gather.town for the coffee breaks.

Since the number of online partipants is limited, registration is mandatory (without fees). The proceedings will be accessible online to all participants during the conference for a period of 4 weeks.

The proceedings of the conference will be published in LNCS.

A Special Issue of the journal Theoretical Computer Science will be devoted to the Combinatorics on Words. See the Call For Papers for details.
