Foundations of Computing (COMP)]

First Call for Papers
---------------------

International Workshop on Algorithms and Computation (WALCOM) is intended to
provide an international forum for researchers working in the areas of
algorithms and computation. WALCOM 2015 will be held during February 26- 28,
2015 at Dhaka, Bangladesh.
SCOPE

computation includes (but is not limited to):
Approximation Algorithms, Algorithmic Graph Theory and Combinatorics,
Combinatorial Algorithms, Combinatorial Optimization, Computational Biology,
Computational Complexity, Computational Geometry, Discrete Geometry, Data
Structures, Experimental Algorithm Methodologies, Graph Algorithms, Graph
Drawing, Parallel and Distributed Algorithms, Parameterized Complexity,
Network Optimization, Online Algorithms, Randomized Algorithms, String
Algorithms.

AUTHOR INSTRUCTIONS
Authors are invited to submit papers (extended abstracts) describing original
research of theoretical or practical significance to algorithms and
computation. Papers should not exceed 12 pages in LNCS style. Papers
significantly shorter than 12 pages are also welcome. If the authors feel that
more details are essential to substantiate the main claim of the paper, they
may include a clearly marked appendix that will be read at the discretion of

papers must describe work not previously published. They must not be submitted
simultaneously to another conference with refereed proceedings or to a
journal.

included in the Springer-Verlag series Lecture Notes in Computer Science
(www.springer.com/lncs).

JOURNAL SPECIAL ISSUE
Special issues dedicated to WALCOM 2015 will be published at the Journal of
Graph Algorithms and Applications and the Journal of Discrete Algorithms.

VENUE
