[DMANET] MADALGO Summer School on DATA STRUCTURES

MADALGO Summer School on

DATA STRUCTURES

August 19-22, 2013 Aarhus University, Denmark

www.madalgo.au.dk/datastructures2013


OVERVIEW AND GOAL

This summer school will provide an in-depth introduction to some of
the important topics in data structures. The topics range from graph
data structures to succinct data structures and the lectures will
cover some of the important recent advances as well as highlighting a
number of interesting open problems.

LECTURES

The school will be taught by experts in data structures:

* Valerie King (University of Victoria)
* Ian Munro (University of Waterloo)
* Rasmus Pagh (IT University of Copenhagen)
* Robert E. Tarjan (Princeton University and HP Labs)

PARTICIPATION

The summer school will take place on August 19-22, 2013 at Center for
Massive Data Algorithmics (MADALGO) in the Department of Computer
Science, Aarhus University, Denmark.

The school is targeted at graduate students, as well as researchers
interested in an in-depth introduction to Data structures.

The capacity of the summer school is limited. Prospective participants
should register as soon as possible. Registering graduate students
must also have their supervisor send a letter confirming their
graduate student status directly to madalgo@madalgo.au.dk; the subject
line of the email should be "student_<last name>/SS_2013/confirming".
Registration is on a first-come-first-serve basis and will close on
Friday July 5, 2013.

Registration is free; handouts, coffee breaks, lunches and a dinner
will be provided by MADALGO and Aarhus University.

ABOUT MADALGO

Center for Massive Data Algorithmics is a major basic research
center funded by the Danish National Research Foundation. The
center is located at the Department of Computer Science, Aarhus
University, Denmark, but also includes researchers at CSAIL,
Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the US, and at the Max
Planck Institute for Informatics and at Frankfurt University in
Germany. The center covers all areas of the design, analysis and
implementation of algorithms and data structures for processing
massive data (interpreted broadly to cover computations where
data is large compared to the computational resources), but with
a main focus on I/O-efficient, cache-oblivious and data stream
algorithms.
