[DMANET] Call for papers: ANALCO'11

Call for papers:


ANalytic ALgorithmics and COmbinatorics -- ANALCO'11
San Francisco, California, USA
January 22, 2011
http://www.siam.org/meetings/analco11/


Description
===========

The Workshop on Analytic Algorithmics and Combinatorics
(ANALCO'11) will be held on January 22, 2011, at the
Holiday Inn San Francisco Golden Gateway, San Francisco,
California, USA.

The aim of the ANALCO workshop is to provide a forum for
the presentation of original research in the analysis of
algorithms and associated combinatorial structures. We
invite both papers that study properties of fundamental
combinatorial structures that arise in practical
computational applications (such as permutations, trees,
strings, tries, and graphs) and papers that address the
precise analysis of algorithms for processing such
structures, including: average-case analysis; analysis
of moments, extrema, and distributions; probabilistic
analysis of randomized algorithms, and so on.

Submissions that present significant new information
about classic algorithms are welcome, as are new analyses
of new algorithms that present unique analytic challenges.
We also invite submissions that address tools and techniques
for the analysis of algorithms and combinatorial structures,
both mathematical and computational.

This workshop is co-located with the ACM-SIAM Symposium
on Discrete Algorithms -- SODA'11:
http://www.siam.org/meetings/da11/
and will take place the day preceding that conference.
The workshop is also co-located with the Workshop on
Algorithm Engineering and Experimentation -- ALENEX11:
http://www.siam.org/meetings/alenex11/
and will take place on the same day. Since researchers
in both fields are approaching the problem of learning
detailed information about the performance of particular
algorithms, we expect that interesting synergies will
develop.

Registrants from either workshop will be cross-registered
with the other. Proceedings of ALENEX and ANALCO will
be available online in January 2011.

A paper that has been reviewed and accepted for
presentation at SODA is not eligible for submission to
ANALCO. We recognize, however that some research projects
spawn multiple papers that elaborate on different aspects
of the work and are willing to respond to inquiries about
SODA, ALENEX, and ANALCO papers that may overlap. Papers
of interest to both the ALENEX and the ANALCO communities
are particularly encouraged. Such papers may be submitted
to either workshop and will, as appropriate, be presented
in a joint session. The ANALCO workshop is supported by
SIAM (Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics).
