[DMANET] WAOA 2023: 2nd Call for Papers

2nd Call for Papers:
WAOA 2023
September 7-8, 2023
https://algo-conference.org/2023/waoa/

====================================================

Paper submission deadline: June 29, 2023 (AOE)

====================================================

SCOPE

The Workshop on Approximation and Online Algorithms (WAOA) focuses on
the design and analysis of approximation and online algorithms. It also
covers experimental methods used to design and analyze efficient
approximation and online algorithms. It is co-located with ALGO 2023,
which also hosts ESA, ALGOCLOUD, ALGOWIN, ATMOS and IPEC. ALGO 2023 will
take place in the beautiful city of Amsterdam in the Netherlands.

IMPORTANT DATES
Paper Submission: June 29, 2023 (AOE)
Notification of acceptance: July 31, 2023
Camera-ready: August 31, 2023
Conference dates: September 7-8, 2023

TOPICS

Papers are solicited in all research areas related to approximation and
online algorithms, including, but not limited to:
* Algorithmic game theory
* Algorithmic trading
* Coloring and partitioning
* Competitive analysis
* Computational advertising
* Computational finance
* Cuts and connectivity
* FPT-approximation algorithms
* Geometric problems
* Graph algorithms
* Inapproximability results
* Mechanism design
* Network design
* Packing and covering
* Paradigms for the design and analysis of approximation and online
algorithms
* Resource augmentation
* Scheduling problems

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

Authors are invited to submit an extended abstract or full paper of at
most 10 pages excluding the title page, references, and an optional
appendix. The submission should be typeset using a 10-point or larger
font in a single-column format with ample spacing throughout and 2cm
margins all around on A4-size paper. Proofs omitted due to space
constraints must be placed in an appendix. This appendix can even
comprise an entire full version of the paper. The appendix will be read
by the program committee members at their discretion. In particular,
appendices of accepted papers are not going to be published in the
proceedings. The main part of the submission should therefore contain a
clear technical presentation of the merits of the paper, including a
discussion of the paper's importance within the context of prior work
and a description of the key technical and conceptual ideas used to
achieve its main claims.

The conference employs a lightweight double-blind reviewing process.
Submissions should not reveal the identity of the authors in any way. In
particular, authors' names, affiliations, and email addresses should not
appear at the beginning or in the body of the submission. Authors should
ensure that any references to their own related work is in the third
person (e.g., not "We build on our previous work …" but rather "We build
on the work of …"). Nothing should be done in the name of anonymity that
weakens the submission or makes the job of reviewing the paper more
difficult. In particular, references should not be omitted or anonymized.

Papers should be submitted electronically via the EasyChair submission
system: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=waoa2023

By submitting a paper the authors acknowledge that in case of acceptance
at least one of the authors must register at ALGO 2023, attend the
conference onsite and present the paper.

The program committee may award a Best Paper Award to one of the
accepted papers.
