26th Annual European Symposium on Algorithms -
ESA 2018
20-22 August 2018, Helsinki, Finland
http://algo2018.hiit.fi/esa/
Submission deadline: 22.04.2018
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA) is one of the premier
conferences
on algorithms. The symposium covers research in all aspects of the
design,
analysis, engineering, and application of algorithms and data structures.
ESA 2018 will be part of ALGO 2018, which also hosts ALGOCLOUD,
ALGOSENSORS, ATMOS, IPEC, WABI, and WAOA.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Call for papers
The symposium seeks original algorithmic contributions for problems with
relevant
theoretical and/or practical applications: papers with a strong emphasis
on the
theoretical analysis of algorithms should be submitted to Track A, while
papers
reporting on the results of extensive experimental evaluations and/or
providing
original contributions to the engineering of algorithms for practical
applications
should be submitted to Track B.
For Track B, ESA 2018 will conduct an experiment with two independent
PCs, both
of which will follow the usual procedure for reviewing the submissions.
More details
about the experiment are provided on this webpage:
http://algo2018.hiit.fi/esa/experiment/
There will be a Best Student Paper Award as well as a Best Paper Award,
both
sponsored by EATCS. In order for a paper to be considered for the Best
Student
Paper Award, all of its authors are required to be students.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

are sought,
including but not limited to:
Algorithm engineering
Algorithmic aspects of networks
