Rolf Niedermeier was one of the pioneers of parameterized algorithms,
a tireless supporter of the computer science community, and a great
friend. To commemorate his life and his extensive and fruitful body of
work, the Journal of Computer and System Sciences, where Rolf
Niedermeier also served as associate editor, will publish a special issue.
The issue will feature research articles that are concerned with the
topics in computer science to which Rolf Niedermeier contributed. We
thus invite high-quality submissions reporting on original research in
these areas.
Relevant topics are, for example:
- Parameterized complexity,
- Fixed-parameter algorithms,
- Kernelization,
- Graph algorithms,
- Computational social choice,
- Computational biology,
- String algorithms,
- Temporal graphs, and
- Algorithm engineering for hard problems.
A contribution may include a section describing Rolf's influence on the
authors, both on their academic careers and personal lives.
The submissions will be peer-reviewed according to the high standards of
Journal of Computer and System Sciences.
Submission deadline: July 31 2023
Submission portal: https://www.editorialmanager.com/jcss/default2.aspx
Make sure to select VSI:Rolf Niedermeier [MGE - Saket Saurabh] at the
"Article Type" step in the submission process.
Best regards,
Fedor Fomin, Saket Saurabh, and Christian Komusiewicz
