ABOUT SOFSEM
--------------------------------------------------

SOFSEM is the annual winter conference devoted to the theory and practice of computer science.
The conference traditionally focuses on the recent results and developments in fundamental research
inspired by the challenges in computer science and related fields to design the innovative
software systems of our time. SOFSEM has a long history of facilitating the scientific interchange
among researchers in all stages of their career. The series of SOFSEM conferences was interrupted
in 2022 due to the pandemic. In 2023 SOFSEM will be held again, in scenic Nový Smokovec
in the Tatra Mountains (Slovakia).

--------------------------------------------------
SCOPE AND TOPICS
--------------------------------------------------

The program committee is soliciting original and significant research contributions to all
recognized areas of foundational computer science and their interface with applied domains
including artificial intelligence and data science, such as the design and analysis of algorithms
and data structures, automata and languages, computational complexity theory, cryptography and
security, data and pattern mining, distributed and parallel computing, formal models and methods,
graphs and network analysis, intelligent systems, machine learning, multi-agent systems,
planning and routing, quantum computing, and all other forms of science-inspired computing.
Original contributions addressing fundamental research issues and emerging topics in other
areas of (applied) computing are also welcome.
