Scope:
Analysis of algorithms is a scientific basis for computation, providing
a link between abstract algorithms and the performance characteristics
of their implementations in the real world. The general effort to
predict precisely the performance of algorithms has come to involve
research in analytic combinatorics, the analysis of random discrete
structures, asymptotic analysis, exact and limiting distributions, and
other fields of inquiry in computer science, probability theory, and
enumerative combinatorics. See http://aofa.cs.purdue.edu/ .
We invite papers in
* analytic algorithmics and combinatorics
* probabilistic analysis of algorithms
* randomized algorithms
We also welcome papers addressing problems such as: combinatorial
algorithms, string searching and pattern matching, sublinear algorithms
on massive data sets, network algorithms, graph algorithms, caching and
memory hierarchies, indexing, data mining, data compression, coding and
information theory, and computational finance. Papers are also welcome
that address bridges to research in related fields such as statistical
physics, computational biology, computational geometry, and simulation.
