[DMANET] Workshop on Graph Modification in Bergen - call for presentations

*******************************************************************************
GRAPH MODIFICATION IN BERGEN - CALL FOR ORAL PRESENTATIONS

Workshop on Graph Modification: algorithms, experiments and new
problems
Bergen, Norway, 23rd - 24th January 2020

http://graphmodif.ii.uib.no/

Deadline for presentation proposal: 15th November 2019
*******************************************************************************


The workshop intends to provide a forum for the exchange and emergence
of new ideas and approaches on the topic of graph modification problems,
for both researchers and students. The program will include
presentations of new results, tutorials and free time for discussions
and working sessions. We encourage all participants to give a talk and
invite them to submit an abstract of their talk of at most half a page
before November 15th. We encourage proposals of talks on all aspects of
graph modification, studied either from a theoretic point of view or for
practical purposes, by either formal methods or experimental approaches.
Typical topics of interest include but are not limited to:

* Algorithms for graph modification problems (parameterized, kernels,
approximation, heuristics, inclusion minimal, etc.)
* New types of modifications (edge contraction, vertex merge, swap of
edges, rewiring, etc.)
* Use of edit distances for other problems
* Structural results and characterisations
* Experiments on real-world graphs and random graphs
* Evaluation and comparison of methods
* Concrete use of graph modification problems

To make a presentation, submit a short abstract (maximum half a page, in
pdf format) before November 15th, by email to
christophe.crespelle@uib.no. We wish to accept all talks relevant to the
topic of the workshop, though we may have to perform a selection because
of a limited number of presentation slots (answer on November 22nd).

Registration to the workshop is free but mandatory: submit your
registration form (see website, registration page) before December 8th,
by email to christophe.crespelle@uib.no.

Looking forward to seeing you in Bergen in January!
