The International Conference and Workshop on Algorithms and Computation
(WALCOM) provides an international forum for researchers working in the
areas of algorithms and computation. WALCOM 2026 will be held from March
4th to March 6th, 2026, in Perugia, Italy.

Conference: March 4 - 6, 2026
Invited Speakers
----------------
Paolo Ferragina, Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna, Pisa, Italy
Petra Mutzel, Universität Bonn, Germany
Bart Jansen, Eindhoven University of Technology, the Netherlands
Submission Guidelines
---------------------
Authors are invited to submit papers describing original research of
theoretical or practical significance to algorithms and computation.
Papers should not exceed 14 pages (including references but excluding
the optional appendix) in LNCS style. If the authors feel that more
details are essential to substantiate the main claim of the paper, they
may include a clearly marked appendix that will be read at the
discretion of the Program Committee. The LNCS style file can be
downloaded from the LNCS conference proceedings website.
Papers submitted for review should represent original, previously
unpublished work or surveys of important results. At the time the paper
is submitted to WALCOM 2026, and for the entire review period, the paper
(or essentially the same paper) should not be under review by any other
conference with published proceedings or by a scientific journal.
Submissions will be handled via EasyChair:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=walcom2026. No other form of
submission is allowed.
At least one author of each accepted paper will be expected to attend
the conference and present the paper onsite.
