[DMANET] Conference CP21 - Call For Papers (Deadline Extension!)
Conference CP21 - Call For Papers (Deadline Extension to Sunday 30th midnight AoE !)
1 Call For Papers (Deadline Extension!)
The Twenty-Seventh Conference on Principles and Practice of Constraint Programming (CP 2021), will run online from October 25 to 29, 2021. The conference site is easily reachable at CP2021 <https://cp2021.a4cp.org/>.
The CP conference series concerns all aspects of computing with constraints, including: theory, algorithms, environments, languages, models, systems, and applications. It welcomes submissions that advance the state of the art for the underlying technologies as well as papers that explore the role of constraint programming within other disciplines such as operations research, machine learning, verification and planning.
The CP 2021 program will include presentations of high-quality scientific papers and tutorials on both theory and applications. Invited talks will describe important topics relevant to the field. The CP program also welcomes workshops for discussing in-progress work and provides support to students through its doctoral program, which includes a dedicated one day doctoral conference, mentorship by experienced researchers and more.
1.1 Tracks
The conference features a main Technical Track, and Thematic tracks:
Application
CP and Machine Learning
CP and Operations Research
Testing and Verification
Papers are submitted directly to one of the five tracks. Submissions that reach beyond classic constraint programming concepts are encouraged and welcomed alongside papers on constraint solving, NP-hard problem solving and optimization in general. Any underlying computational technique operating on a declarative constraint model are also welcome. Papers in specialized tracks will be reviewed by experts in that area.
1.2 Important dates (Extension)
The submission deadlines are pushed back by two days. The new deadlines are AoE (anywhere on earth) and shown below:
May 21, 2021 - Abstracts (Intention to submit)
May 30, 2021 - Paper submission deadline
June 30-July 02 - Author response period
July 12, 2021 - Notifications
July 26, 2021 - Camera-ready
October 25, 2021 - Conference kickoff
1.3 Submissions Instructions
Paper submission is via EasyChair <https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=cp2021#>(CP 2021). Each submission should be directed to the suitable track.
1.3.1 Length and format
Noteworthy: CP21 is switching from Springer to LIPIcs for its proceedings. It is therefore crucial for authors to follows the guidelines provided below and not start from an old style file that is appropriate for Springer only.
The submissions should be submitted in the form of a PDF file following LIPIcs guidelines <https://submission.dagstuhl.de/documentation/authors>. The site linked above has examples and the necessary style files. Please read the directions <https://submission.dagstuhl.de/styles/instructions/66> attentively as specific LaTeX packages are prohibited or restricted.
To open the conference more widely (e.g., for OR persons), two types of submissions are expected this year:
full papers: they can use up to 15 pages (references not included) but shorter submissions are also welcome. Submissions exceeding the page limits or improperly formatted will be rejected without review.
short papers: they can use a maximum of 8 pages (reference excluded) and cover early results or results that can be adequately reported in just 8 pages. Short papers must nonetheless meet all the expected quality criteria of a full paper.
All papers should attract a wide audience and will be allocated time for presentation during the conference.
1.3.2 Anonymous Submission
To facilitate reviewing management, authors who intend to submit a paper to CP should submit a very short description of the contents and contribution of the final submission, with a maximum of 150 words, by May 21th, 2021.
The paper submission must be done before May 30th, 2021. All papers will go through a double blind reviewing process, meaning that authors and reviewers are anonymous to each other. For this reason, submitted full papers should not contain author names, affiliations, or links to identifying web sites. References should be cited in such a way as not to reveal the authorship of the paper.
1.3.3 Multiple Submission
A given paper must be submitted to exactly one track. When it looks necessary, the Program Chair may move a submission to another, more suitable track.
At the final submission deadline, any paper submission that appeared in, is accepted for, or is under review for another peer-reviewed conference or journal must be promptly withdrawn.
Submissions that have appeared at workshops or other meetings of lower status than a conference or only in highly shortened form (e.g., abstracts) can be submitted as papers.
1.3.4 Proceedings
Accepted papers (in all tracks) will appear in conference proceedings published by LIPIcs. The proceedings will be available at the time of the conference.
The program committee will select a set of outstanding papers that are invited to submit an extended version of their work to the Constraints journal in a fast-track review process. Authors if invited papers will be offered two options: (a) publication in the conference proceedings; (b) publication of an abstract in the conference proceedings, an online version of the paper submitted to the conference and the fast track. Note that Constraints is a Springer journal with its own formatting guidelines.
1.3.5 Other Information
Questions about the paper submission process may be addressed to the Program Chair Laurent Michel <mailto:ldm+cp21@engr.uconn.edu>.

[DMANET] SISEG@SISAP 2021: Deadline extended to June 14
14th International Conference on Similarity Search and Applications
(SISAP) 2021 Special Session:
https://sisap.org/2021/specialsessions.html
Similarity Search in Graph-Structured Data (SISEG)
--------------------------------------------------
Graphs are a versatile data structure for representing structured
objects such as molecules in computational drug discovery, proteins and
their interaction networks in bioinformatics, scene graphs in computer
vision, social networks, and knowledge graphs. Analyzing the large
amounts of data in these domains often involves defining a similarity
measure on graphs (or nodes). The complex structure and heterogeneity of
the graphs appearing in real-world applications makes their comparison
challenging. Various concepts for this have been proposed including
general-purpose and domain-specific approaches. These can be divided
into techniques based on graph matching and graph embedding. Graph
matching refers to methods finding a mapping between the nodes of two
graphs that preserves the adjacency structure. Widely used methods are
based on the graph edit distance, the maximum common subgraph problem,
and network alignment. Similarity search regarding measures from graph
matching is challenging, since the underlying graph problems are
typically NP-hard, and the properties of a metric are not necessarily
satisfied but depend on subtle differences in definition. Graph
embedding methods map graphs into a vector space, such that similar
graphs are mapped to close vectors. This renders standard approaches
possible for graph data and significantly simplifies the problem of
similarity search. Various general-purpose embedding techniques exist
including graph kernels and graph neural networks developed for machine
learning with graphs. Moreover, application-specific techniques have a
long history, e.g., chemical fingerprints for representing molecules.
With the growing amount of available heterogeneous graph-structured
data, similarity search becomes increasingly important.
Topics of interest for this special session include, but are not limited to:
* Similarity measures for graphs and their properties
* Indexing methods for graphs
* Similarity in learning and mining with graphs
* Applications of graph similarity

Dear Colleague,
We are pleased to announce a call for a book chapter in the book "RECENT
ADVANCEMENTS IN ICT INFRASTRUCTURE AND APPLICATIONS" which will be
published by Springer.
The objective of this book is to cover the complete spectrum of the ICT
infrastructure elements required to design, develop and deploy the ICT
applications at large scale. Considering the focus of governments worldwide
to develop smart cities with zero environmental footprint, the book is
timely and enlightens the way forward to achieve the goal by addressing the
technological aspects. Starting with architectural components and
frameworks for ICT applications such as sensors and actuators,
microcontrollers and interfacing platforms, this book includes various
communication protocols and data processing frameworks, secure and
distributed storage architectures, and the software architectures. The
book also

[DMANET] Call for papers: "Artificial Intelligence Approaches for Green Transportation Planning" (Journal of Advanced Transportation; Hindawi-Wiley)
Special Issue: Artificial Intelligence Approaches for Green Transportation
Planning
(Journal of Advanced Transportation; Hindawi-Wiley)
https://www.hindawi.com/journals/jat/si/564025/
Deadline: 13 of August of 2021
----------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS
----------------------------------------
Artificial Intelligence Approaches for Green Transportation Planning
Green and environmentally transport planning is a current challenge for
public and private organizations demanding the implementation of innovative
and advanced transport solutions to reduce environmental and social impacts
in their operations. In this context, current trends are calling for the
incorporation of novel strategies and approaches in transport systems for
reducing energy usage as well as waste and pollution generation. The
consideration of that goal and the connection to this green dimension leads
to the need of developing and reviewing current models and methods at the
light of modern transport solutions and technologies, e.g., energy reuse,
alternative fuels, hybrid and green-energy based vehicles, autonomous
vehicles, collaborative planning, truck platooning, to name a few.
The previous discussion results in a current keen interest in the
development of solutions, approaches, and methodologies that can assist
managers and decision-makers in the design and development of
transportation systems while jointly considering environmental-related
advances. This can be certainly progressed by better collecting,
processing, and using data within quantitative and decision support
approaches. Furthermore, with the incorporation of new smart transport
technologies as well as advances from artificial intelligence such as
machine learning, meta-learning, etc., significant effects can be obtained.
In this way, to properly capture and utilize the full potential of latest
developments, it is necessary to consider and analyze how artificial
intelligence approaches and decision support systems can jointly foster
efficient and environmentally-friendly transport operations.
This special issue aims at examining the current progress on artificial
intelligence approaches for designing, developing, and promoting green and
sustainable transportation systems through optimization, intelligent use of
data, and advanced decision support. This also involves the incorporation
of smart and current transportation solutions, e.g., unmanned and
autonomous vehicles, IoT, truck platooning, etc. Thus, this issue will
provide readers with high-quality contributions exploring and dealing with
transportation problems within the interplay between transportation
management, planning, and green logistics. The scope of this issue,
therefore, will cover relevant research and reviews focusing on the
incorporation and use of advanced transport technologies and artificial
intelligence techniques to support and enhance transport planning while
promoting green development and mitigating negative environmental impacts.
Potential topics include but are not limited to the following:
- Maritime, land, air, and multimodal transportation
- Artificial intelligence techniques for green transport planning
- Quantitative evaluation of green transportation systems
- Theoretical and/or empirical analysis of AI approaches in green
transportation
- Intelligent techniques for online and offline planning
- Joint use of artificial intelligence and mathematical programming
- Sustainability in advanced transportation systems
- Advances in vehicle routing problems within green logistics
- Combination of artificial intelligence and operations research to address
sustainable planning
- Data-driven planning approaches considering environmental-related features
- Smart transport solutions to reduce environmental impacts
- Emerging transport technologies to support synchromodal transport network
planning
- Collaborative transport management to reduce waste and emissions
- Use of autonomous vehicles and its impact to reduce emissions
- Heuristics, metaheuristics, and hyper heuristics-based systems
- Integrating real-time information into the optimization frameworks
- Transportation approaches with shared infrastructure and resources
Submission deadline:
13 August 2021
Papers are published upon acceptance, regardless of the Special Issue
publication date.

[DMANET] [Scheduling seminar] Erik Demeulemeester (KU Leuven) | May 26 | On the State of the Art in Proactive/Reactive Project Scheduling
Dear scheduling researcher,
We are delighted to announce the talk given by Erik Demeulemeester (KU
Leuven).
The title is "On the State of the Art in Proactive/Reactive Project
Scheduling".
The seminar will take place on Zoom on Wednesday, May 26 at 13:00 UTC.
https://cesnet.zoom.us/j/93810859740?pwd=T3Z6d3hZSDM2UnFDRVQrMi9YMnY5Zz09
Meeting ID: 938 1085 9740
Passcode: 021060
You can follow the seminar online or offline on our Youtube channel as well:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUoCNnaAfw5NAntItILFn4A
The abstract follows.
The majority of publications in the extensive literature on
resource-constrained project scheduling focus on a static deterministic
setting for which a so-called baseline schedule is computed prior to
project execution. In the real world, however, a project may be subject
to considerable uncertainty. During the actual execution of a project,
the baseline schedule may indeed suffer from disruptive events, causing
the actually realized activity start times to deviate from the predicted
baseline start times. This presentation focuses on robust project
scheduling, in particular the development of effective and efficient
proactive and reactive scheduling procedures. Proactive scheduling aims
at generating robust baseline schedules that carry sufficient protection
against possible schedule disruptions that may occur during project
execution. Reactive scheduling procedures aim at repairing the baseline
schedule when the built-in protection fails during the execution of the
project. We discuss the fundamentals of state of the art
proactive/reactive project scheduling approaches and discuss key
directions for future research.
The next seminar in our series will be given by Jinjiang Yuan (Zhengzhou
Univ.) "Updated complexity results in single-machine primary-secondary
scheduling for minimizing two regular criteria" and it will be held on
June 9 at 13:00 UTC. For more details please visit
