SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS:
"Graph Algorithms" -- A special issue of Algorithms (ISSN 1999-4893)
This special issue of Algorithms is devoted to the design and
analysis of algorithms for solving combinatorial problems of a
theoretical or practical nature involving graphs, with a focus on
computational complexity.
Because of their simplicity and generality, graphs have been used
for a long time in many different areas of science and engineering,
e.g., to describe how objects such as the atoms of a molecule are
connected or to express various types of constraints such as
precedence constraints in a complex manufacturing process.
More recently, graphs have found new applications in emerging
research fields like social network analysis, the design of robust
computer network topologies, frequency allocation in wireless
networks, and bioinformatics (i.e., to represent metabolic pathways,
protein-protein interactions, evolutionary relationships, or other
kinds of structured biological information).
The amount of data in such applications can be enormous, and
therefore, the resulting graphs may be huge, which motivates further
development of fast and space-efficient algorithms in the near
future for solving various (old and new) graph problems exactly or
approximately.
We hereby invite papers presenting original research on graph
algorithms to this special issue and hope to receive many
high-quality submissions.
