FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS
LAGOS 2021
The XI Latin and American Algorithms, Graphs and Optimization Symposium
May 17 to 21, 2021 --- Sao Paulo, Brazil

======================================================================
About the conference
LAGOS'2021 will be held in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The previous editions
were held in Fortaleza, Brazil (GRACO 2001), Santiago, Chile (LACGA
2004), Angra dos Reis, Brazil (GRACO 2005), Puerto Varas, Chile (LAGOS
2007), Gramado, Brazil (LAGOS 2009), Bariloche, Argentina (LAGOS
2011), Playa del Carmen, Mexico (LAGOS 2013), Fortaleza, Brazil (LAGOS
2015), Marseille, France (LAGOS 2017) and Belo Horizonte, Brazil
(LAGOS 2019). As in previous editions, the conference proceedings will
be published in a selected journal, Electronic Notes in Theoretical
Computer Science, and a special edition of Discrete Applied
Mathematics will be devoted to selected full papers after the
conference.
This year's edition will be very special because we will celebrate the
70th anniversary of our beloved Yoshiko Wakabayashi.

published by Elsevier in the ENTCS - Electronic Notes in Theoretical
Computer Science series.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUBMISSION
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Authors are invited to submit full papers or extended abstracts in
English with eight (8) single-column letter-size pages in the Elsevier
ENTCS format containing original research results. Authors can optionally
add an appendix with proofs, sketches of proofs, or additional
material to be used, at the discretion of the Scientific Committee,
and it is expected that it will only be used to reach an
acceptance/rejection decision.
Simultaneous submission of papers to any other conference with
published proceedings, as well as the submission of previously
published papers, is not allowed. Instructions for electronic
submissions will be posted at the conference web site. At least one
author of each accepted papers must register for the conference to be
included in the program.
The submission process must be completed electronically through
EasyChair (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=lagos2021).
For more information, please check the LAGOS 2021 website at
http://eventos.ufabc.edu.br/lagos2021/
Following the tradition of LAGOS, a special issue of Discrete Applied
Mathematics will be prepared for LAGOS 2021 and all interested
researchers will be invited to contribute to this special issue.
