[DMANET] SEA 2025: first call for participation

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

***********************************************************
23rd Symposium on Experimental Algorithms (SEA 2025)
Location: Venice, Italy
Dates: July 22-24, 2025
Website: https://regindex.github.io/sea2025.github.io
***********************************************************

The Symposium of Experimental Algorithms 2025 (SEA 2025) will take place
from
22 to 24 July 2025 in Venice, Italy, in auditorium "Santa Margherita",
a historical building from the IX century in the Dorsoduro neighborhood of
Venice.

SEA aims to attract papers from the Computer Science community, the
Operations
Research/Mathematical Programming community and any other scientific
community
that is concerned with the main theme of the symposium, namely the role of
experimentation and of algorithm engineering techniques in the design and
evaluation of algorithms and data structures. Submissions should present
significant contributions supported by experimental evaluation,
methodological
issues in the design and interpretation of experiments, the use of
(meta-)heuristics, or application-driven case studies that deepen the
understanding of the complexity of a problem.

A main goal of SEA is also the creation of a friendly environment that can
lead to and ease the establishment or strengthening of scientific
collaborations and exchanges among attendees.

Opportunistic Data Structures with Applications.
41st Annual Symposium on Foundations of Computer Science (FOCS '00).
Awarded with the Paris Kanellakis Award '22.

Compressed Suffix Array
Roberto Grossi, Jeffrey Scott Vitter.
Compressed Suffix Arrays and Suffix Trees with Applications to Text Indexing
and String Matching.
32nd Annual ACM Symposium on Theory of Computing (STOC '00).

The workshop will feature invited talks by Giovanni Manzini and Roberto
Grossi
as well as contributed talks on related topics.
