40th International Workshop on Graph-Theoretic Concepts in Computer Science

June 25-27, Domaine de Chalès near Orléans, France

******************************

The WG 2014 conference is the 40th edition of the WG series. It will take place in the region of the wonderful castles at the Loire, near Orléans. The conference will be from the 25th to the 27th of June 2014, with participants expected to arrive in Orléans on the 24th of June.

AIMS AND SCOPE
***************
WG conferences aim to connect theory and applications by demonstrating how graph-theoretic concepts can be applied in various areas of computer science. The goal is to present recent results and to identify and explore directions for future research. Submitted papers should describe original results in any aspects of graph theory related to computer science, including but not restricted to:
- design and analysis of sequential, parallel, randomized, parameterized and distributed graph and network algorithms,
- structural graph theory with algorithmic or complexity applications,
- computational complexity of graph and network problems,
- graph grammars, graph rewriting systems and graph modeling,
- graph drawing and layouts,
- computational geometry,
- random graphs and models of the web and scale-free networks, and
- support of these concepts by suitable implementations and applications.

SUBMISSIONS AND PROCEEDINGS
***************
Contributors are invited to submit an extended abstract of at most 12 pages Springer LNCS format including title, abstract and references. Proofs omitted due to space restrictions must be placed in an appendix, to be read by program committee members at their discretion. Simultaneous submission of papers to any other conference with published proceedings or submitting papers previously accepted for journal publication is not allowed. Authors are encouraged to post full versions of their submissions in a freely accessible repository such as the arXiv or ECCC.

Invited papers and accepted contributions will be published in the conference proceedings in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science, Springer-Verlag.

WG 2014 offers an award for the best paper written by students only. Three papers selected by the PC will be invited to contribute to a special section in Algorithmica.
