[DMANET] IPEC 2024: Call for Papers

The International Symposium on Parameterized and Exact Computation
(IPEC) is an annual conference covering all aspects of parameterized and
exact algorithms and complexity. Its 19th edition will be part of ALGO
2024, which also hosts ESA 2024 and other specialized conferences and
workshops.

IPEC 2024 invites papers presenting original research in the area of
parameterized and exact algorithms and complexity. Topics include but
are not limited to the following:
- new techniques for the design and analysis of parameterized and exact
algorithms;
- fixed-parameter tractability and kernelization results;
- parameterized complexity theory;
- parameterized (in)approximability results;
- relationships between parameterized complexity and traditional
complexity classifications;
- applications of parameterized and exact computation;
- engineering and experimentation of exact, parameterized, and
kernelization algorithms.

We plan to have an invited talk by (one of) the 2024 EATCS-IPEC Nerode
Prize winner(s),
and a tutorial on first-order model checking given by Szymon Toruńczyk.
In addition, IPEC also hosts the presentation of the results from PACE
2024 (the Parameterized Algorithms and Computational
Experiments Challenge). This year, the focus of PACE is the one-sided
crossing minimization problem. For more details on the PACE challenge,
see their website: https://pacechallenge.org/2024/

TIME AND PLACE

IPEC 2024 will take place September 4--6 in Royal Holloway, UK
It is part of ALGO 2024, which runs September 2--6.


IMPORTANT DATES

June 26 (23:59 AoE): Abstract submission (paper registration)
June 30 (23:59 AoE): Submission deadline

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

As previous recent years, IPEC is using a lightweight double-blind model
for the reviewing process.
