structures, suffix trees and arrays, Burrows-Wheeler, implementation
issues in construction and queries, and online strategies with
applications to search and exploration.

The international workshop will take place in the context of the
implementation of the project »Internationalization of the University
of Ljubljana«.

** LECTURES
The school will be taught by experts in learning:
