-------------------------------------------------------------------------- 24th European Symposium on Algorithms - ESA 2016 22-26 August 2016, Aarhus, Denmark http://conferences.au.dk/algo16/esa/ Submission deadline: 21.04.2016 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA) is one of the premier conferences on algorithms. The symposium covers research in all aspects of the design, analysis, engineering, and application of algorithms and data structures. ESA 2016 has two tracks: the Design and Analysis Track (Track A) and the Engineering and Applications Track (Track B). ESA 2016 is organized in collaboration with the European Association for Theoretical Computer Science (EATCS) and is a part of ALGO 2016 (http://conferences.au.dk/algo16/). -------------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS The symposium seeks original algorithmic contributions for problems with relevant theoretical and/or practical applications: papers with a strong emphasis on the theoretical analysis of algorithms should be submitted to Track A, while papers reporting on the results of extensive experimental evaluations and/or providing original contributions to the engineering of algorithms for practical applications should be submitted to Track B. There will be a Best Student Paper Award as well as a Best Paper Award, both sponsored by EATCS. In order for a paper to be considered for the Best Student Paper Award, all of its authors are required to be students. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- TOPICS Papers presenting original research in all areas of algorithmic research are sought, including but not limited to: Algorithm engineering Algorithmic aspects of networks Algorithmic game theory Approximation algorithms Computational biology Computational finance Computational geometry Combinatorial optimization Data compression Data structures Databases and information retrieval Distributed and parallel computing Graph algorithms Hierarchical memories Heuristics and meta-heuristics Mathematical programming Mobile computing On-line algorithms Parameterized algorithms Pattern matching Quantum computing Randomized algorithms Scheduling and resource allocation problems Streaming algorithms ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- IMPORTANT DATES Submission: April 21, 23:59 AoE, 2016 Notification of acceptance: June 9, 2016 Final version: June 22, 2016 Symposium: August 22-26, 2016 Deadlines are firm: late submissions will not be considered. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SUBMISSION GUIDELINES AND PROCEEDINGS Authors are invited to submit an extended abstract or full paper of at most 12 pages and an optional appendix. For the first time the ESA 2016 proceedings will be published in the Leibniz International Proceedings in Informatics (LIPIcs) series, based at Schloss Dagstuhl. Submissions must be formatted in LaTeX, using the LIPIcs style file (https://www.dagstuhl.de/en/publications/lipics/instructions-for-authors/). The maximum length of the paper (excluding references and the optional appendix) is 12 pages. Do not change the margin size or the font, do not make a separate title page, etc.: use the LIPIcs style file as given. Proofs omitted due to space constraints must be placed in an appendix to be read by the program committee members at their discretion. These guidelines are strict: papers failing to adhere to the guidelines (by not providing the omitted proofs in an appendix, being more than 12 pages, or not being in LIPIcs format) will be rejected without consideration of their merits. Papers should be submitted electronically via the EasyChair submission system (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=esa16). Results previously published in another conference proceedings or journal (or scheduled for publication prior to ESA) will not be accepted at ESA. Simultaneous submission to other conferences with published proceedings, or to both tracks of ESA 2016, is not permitted. There will be a Best Student Paper Award as well as a Best Paper Award, both sponsored by EATCS. In order for a paper to be considered for the Best Student Paper Award, all of its authors are required to be students. By submitting a paper the authors acknowledge that in case of acceptance at least one of the authors must register at ALGO 2016 or ESA 206, attend the conference, and present the paper. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- INVITED SPEAKERS Ola Svensson - EPFL, Switzerland Giuseppe Italiano - University of Roma "Tor Vergata", Italy -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PROGRAM COMMITTEES ------------------------------------------------------ Design and Analysis (Track A) Program Committee Alexandr Andoni - Columbia University, USA Chen Avin - Ben Gurion University of The Negev, Israel Sergio Cabello - University of Ljubljana, Slovenia Parinya Chalermsook - Max Planck Institute for Informatics, Germany Shiri Chechik - Tel-Aviv University, Israel Holger Dell - Saarland University, Germany Friedrich Eisenbrand - EPFL, Switzerland Pierre Fraigniaud - CNRS and University Paris Diderot, France Naveen Garg - Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, India Pawe??
