The Thirteenth International Conference on Fun with Algorithms (FUN 2026) will be held in Island of Porquerolles, France, in May 2026, at Hôtel Club Igesa Porquerolles.
FUN is a series of conferences dedicated to the use, design, and analysis of algorithms and data structures, focusing on results that provide amusing, witty but nonetheless original and scientifically profound contributions to the area.
Fun is a notion that can be judged from different perspectives, and be defined in many different manners. The conference defines fun in a broad sense, including aspects such as elegance, simplicity, amusement, surprise, originality, etc.
The topics of interest include all aspects of algorithm design and analysis, and of computational complexity, under all types of models (sequential, parallel, distributed, streaming, online, etc.).
Submissions can have unlimited length, and authors are encouraged to submit complete papers, in A4 or letter format, 11pt, single column, with reasonable margins. The first ten pages of the submitted papers must include a self-contained description of the results, of their motivations and impact. Papers submitted for review should represent original, previously unpublished work. At the time the paper is submitted to the conference, and for the entire review period, the paper (or essentially the same paper) must not be under review by any other conference with published proceedings or by a scientific journal.
IMPORTANT: At least one full registration is required for each accepted paper.
There are two types of registrations:

*
Full: early registration at 800 euros (late: 900 euros) – full registrations entitle you to accomodation (4 nights), all breakfasts (including friday morning), all lunches, all diners (including monday evening), social dinner, coffee breaks, social event, and an (electronic) copy of the proceedings;
*
Student: early registration at 650 euros (late: 750 euros) – student registrations provide the same benefits at a discounted prices, but the registrant must be a student (i.e., M.Sc. or Ph.D. student) and proof of enrolment at an accredited institution will be required.
