Discrete Applied Mathematics
Special Issue: WEPA 2018 (Second Workshop on Enumeration Problems and
Applications)
WEPA (Workshop on Enumeration Problems and Applications) is a new
international forum for researchers in the area of design, analysis,
experimental evaluation, and engineering of algorithms for enumeration
problems. The objective of WEPA 2018, held in Pisa from 5th November
to 8th November, 2018, was to gather researchers working in
enumeration algorithms with applications in biology, data mining,
logic, and databases to present recent results, to identify and
explore directions for future research, and to foster collaborations.
We invite participants of WEPA 2018 as well as other researchers on
enumeration algorithms to contribute to this special issue of Discrete
Applied Mathematics. Submissions should relate to the themes of WEPA,
including but not restricted to:
- Applications in biology, data mining, logic, and databases
- Approximate enumeration and counting
- Combinatorial enumeration and counting (hypergraph dualization, lattices,
functional dependencies, etc.)
- Input-sensitive algorithms
- Output-sensitive algorithms
Submissions of contributions not presented at the workshop are welcome.
Contributions arising from papers given at the conference should be
substantially extended, and should cite the conference paper where
appropriate. All articles will be thoroughly refereed according to the
high standards of Discrete Applied Mathematics.
The full papers must be submitted through the Elsevier Editorial
System (http://ees.elsevier.com/dam). When submitting your paper, be
sure to specify that the paper is a contribution for the Special Issue
of WEPA 2018, and select the article type SI: WEPA 2018 so that your
paper will be assigned to the guest editors. Please see the Author
Instructions on the site if you have not yet submitted a paper through
this web-based system. Be sure to select the article type S.I.: WEPA
2018.
The deadline for submission is extended to September 30, 2019.
Accepted papers will be published online individually, before print
publication.
We are looking forward to receiving your contribution.
