[DMANET] ATMOS 2021 - Final CfP (extended deadline: 04 July 2021)

Call for Papers

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
ATMOS 2021
21st Symposium on Algorithmic Approaches for Transportation Modeling,
Optimization, and Systems

9-10 September 2021 - part of ALGO 2021

http://algo2021.tecnico.ulisboa.pt/ATMOS2021

Submission deadline (extended): 4 July 2021 (AoE)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SCOPE
-----

The Symposium on Algorithmic Approaches for Transportation Modelling,
Optimization, and Systems (http://atmos-symposium.eu/) is an
international forum for researchers in the area of algorithms
and optimization methods to facilitate planning and operational
management of freight and passenger transportation and traffic.

ATMOS brings together researchers and practitioners who are interested
in all aspects of algorithmic methods and models for transport
optimization. The symposium provides a forum for the exchange and
dissemination of new ideas and techniques. The aim of making
transportation better gives rise to very complex and large-scale
optimization problems requiring innovative solution techniques and
ideas from algorithms, mathematical optimization, theoretical
computer science, and operations research.


IMPORTANT DATES
---------------

Submission deadline (extended): 04 July 2021 (anywhere on earth)
Author Notification: 30 July 2021
Symposium: 9-10 September 2021

PAPER SUBMISSION
----------------

Authors are invited to submit high-quality manuscripts reporting original unpublished research in the topics related to the symposium. Simultaneous submission to other journals or conferences with published proceedings is not allowed. By submitting a paper, the authors acknowledge that in case of acceptance at least one of the authors must register for ALGO/ATMOS 2021 and present the paper.

Submissions must be in the form of a single PDF file prepared using the LaTeX OASIcs style file (https://submission.dagstuhl.de/documentation/authors) and must be submitted electronically via the EasyChair submission system (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=atmos2021).


ATMOS 2021 accepts two types of submissions (new in this year!), both of which will be reviewed with the same quality standards by the Program Committee.

Regular paper submissions: a regular paper submission should clearly motivate the importance of the problem being addressed, discuss prior work and its relationship to the paper, explicitly and precisely state its key contributions, and outline the key technical ideas and methods used to achieve the main results. A regular paper submission should not exceed 12 pages including title page and abstract, but excluding references and an optional appendix. Authors should include all necessary details in their submission so that the Program Committee can judge correctness, importance and originality of their work. Any material (e.g., proofs or experimental results) omitted (from the main part of 12 pages) due to space limitations can be put into the optional appendix, which will be read at the Program Committee's discretion. Regular papers will be allotted up to 20 pages in the proceedings.

Short paper submissions: a short paper submission may present preliminary results or work-in-progress on a specific topic. Authors should clearly motivate the importance of the problem being addressed, discuss prior work and its relationship to the paper, explicitly and precisely state the paper's key contributions, and outline the key technical ideas and methods used to achieve the main claims. A short paper submission should have at least 4 and at most 6 pages. Authors should provide sufficient details in their submission so that the Program Committee can judge correctness, importance and originality of their work. Short papers will be allotted up to 6 pages in the proceedings.
