AIMS AND SCOPE

The symposium, which alternates with the Algorithms and Data
Structures Symposium (WADS), is a forum for researchers in the area
of design and analysis of algorithms and data structures. We invite
submissions of papers presenting original research on algorithms
and data structures in all areas, including but not limited to
approximation algorithms, parameterized algorithms, computational
biology, computational geometry and topology, distributed algorithms,
external-memory algorithms, exponential algorithms, graph
algorithms, online algorithms, optimization algorithms, randomized
algorithms, streaming algorithms, string algorithms, sublinear
algorithms, and algorithmic game theory.

Contributors must submit their papers using the Easychair system
at << https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=swat2014 >>.
Submissions should not exceed 12 pages in Springer LNCS format,
(http://www.springer.com/cda/content/document/cda_downloaddocument/Springer_CS_Proceedings_Author_Guidelines_Jan_2013.pdf?SGWID=0-0-45-1121537-0)
including references. Additionally, a clearly marked appendix may
be included; this appendix will not be regarded as part of the
submission and will be considered only at the discretion of the
program committee. We recommend that you use LaTeX2e together with the
LNCS class file from Springer. Please check the Springer
Information for LNCS Authors for additional information.

Papers submitted for review should represent original, previously
unpublished work. At the time the paper is submitted to the
symposium, and for the entire review period, the paper (or
essentially the same paper) must not be under review by any other
conference with published proceedings or by a scientific journal.
At least one author of every accepted paper is expected to register
and present the paper at the symposium. Symposium proceedings will
be published in the "Lecture Notes in Computer Science" (LNCS)
series of Springer.

A prize will be awarded to the author(s) of the best student-
authored paper. A paper is eligible if all of its authors are
full-time students at the time of submission. This must be
indicated in the submission process.
