=====================================
CALL FOR PAPERS

Theoretical Computer Science Special Issue on
Theoretical Foundations of Evolutionary Computation
https://www.journals.elsevier.com/theoretical-computer-science/call-for-papers/special-issue-on-theoretical-foundations-of-evolutionary-com
Submission deadline: December 31, 2021
=====================================

Aim

Evolutionary computation methods such as evolutionary algorithms and
swarm intelligence algorithms have been successfully applied to a wide
range of real-world optimization problems. Conventional optimization
algorithms often require objective functions to be differentiable,
continuous, or convex. However, these assumptions are often not met in
real-world optimization. In contrast, evolutionary computation methods
only assume (zeroth order) black-box access to the objective values of
solutions.

Mimicking natural phenomena, evolutionary computation methods are often
highly randomized and complex, making a theoretical analysis
challenging. During the past two decades, there have been significant
theoretical efforts. This research has brought general theoretical
analysis tools such as fitness levels and drift analysis. These results
provide useful insights into the working principles of evolutionary
computation methods which have helped practitioners design more powerful
algorithms. As evolutionary computation methods are applied to more
complex real-world optimization problems, there is a need to further
understand these methods theoretically. Thus, this special issue aims to
advance the theoretical understanding of evolutionary computation
methods.

Scope

This special issue solicits original, high-quality contributions on the
theory of evolutionary computation. The scope includes, but is not
limited to:

General analytical methods like fitness levels and drift analysis
Exact and approximation runtime analysis
Black-box complexity
Population diversity and dynamics
Variation and selection operators
Self-adaptation
Fitness landscape and problem difficulty analysis

All classes of evolutionary computation methods will be considered
including (but not limited to): evolutionary algorithms, ant colony
optimization, artificial immune systems, particle swarm optimization,
estimation of distribution algorithms and differential evolution. All
problem domains will be considered, including (but not limited to):
discrete and continuous optimization, single-objective and
multi-objective optimization, constrained optimization, and optimization
under uncertainty (e.g., noisy, dynamic and robust optimization).

Planned Schedule

Submission deadline: December 31, 2021
Notification: September 31, 2022
Final paper submission: October 31, 2022
Tentative publication date: 2023

Submission Instructions

Authors should submit their manuscripts to the Theoretical Computer
Science Editorial System (EM) at
https://www.editorialmanager.com/tcs/default.aspx, and indicate "Special
Issue: Theoretical Foundations of Evolutionary Computation" for their
submission.

Contributions should be typeset in PDF format or the system converts
article files to a single PDF file used in the peer-review
process. Editable files (e.g., Word, LaTeX) are required to typeset an
article for final publication, and must comply with TCS's author
guidelines, which can be retrieved from the Elsevier website,
https://www.elsevier.com/journals/theoretical-computer-science/0304-3975/guide-for-authors.

Please feel free to forward this call for submissions to your colleagues/other relevant mailing lists,
and do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.
We look forward to your contributions.

Best wishes,
Per Kristian Lehre, Chao Qian and Aneta Neumann

[DMANET] Industrial PhD studentship at the University of Glasgow

The School of Computing Science at the University of Glasgow is seeking an excellent candidate for an industrially co-funded PhD studentship, together with Huawei Technologies R&D (UK) Ltd. The project, "Approximate counting in graph databases", lies at the interface of theory and practice: the goal is to exploit recent progress in the theoretical algorithm design for counting and sampling problems to address practical challenges in the area of graph databases. Over the course of the PhD, the student will need to develop expertise on both the theoretical side of the project (algorithms and complexity, graph theory, discrete probability) and practical side (coding skills in C/C++/Rust, and an understanding of concurrent data structures/programming, computer architecture, and (transactional) database system internals). The ideal candidate should have prior expertise in at least one of these areas together with some knowledge of the other and strong motivation to assimilate new skills and knowledge.

The studentship will cover home fees and living expenses at the current UKRI rate; for exceptional candidates there may also be the possibility of covering full international fees (to be decided on a case-by-case basis). The student will be encouraged to undertake one or more paid internships working with Huawei Technologies R&D (UK) Ltd during the PhD.

Prospective candidates should in the first instance send a CV to Kitty Meeks (kitty.meeks@glasgow.ac.uk) as soon as possible, and by Friday 12th November at the latest.

[DMANET] three-years fixed-term researcher position at the University of Pisa on Local Public Transport Optimization

The Department of Computer Science of the University of Pisa has opened a three-years, fixed-term researcher position (RTD-A) on the project "A contribution to greenhouse emissions reduction by a more efficient Public Local Transport".

The RTD-A position is considered the first significant step of the academic career in Italy. Despite being strictly a fixed-term contract with the duration of three years, it is a staff position giving right of vote in the Council of the Department, full access to labor and pension rights (with a gross salary around 35000 Euro/year), and requiring some teaching duties (about one course per annum). It can also be prolonged for two (but no more than two) years subject to availability of funding and mutual interest.

The position has to be viewed in the context of the multi-decades research collaboration between the Department of Computer Science of the University of Pisa and M.A.I.O.R. S.r.l.

https://www.maior.it/en

The research activity will address decision-making processes in organized systems, with particular focus to, but not exclusively, those relating to Local Public Transport. The research considers all the different phases that characterize the decision-making process: the definition of the problem, its mathematical formalization, the formulation of constraints, objectives and action alternatives, the development of solution algorithms as well as their implementation, evaluation and certification. Besides the methodological and theoretical aspects, the research will focus on the development of efficient and well-engineered software implementing the proposed approaches for the solution of either large-scale structured optimization problems or of sub-problems with specific structures that can result from the application of algorithmic methodologies (decomposition, implicit enumeration, large-scale local search, ...) to the original problems. A proper balance will be struck between the development of algorithms for general classes of problems and for the specific problems encountered by M.A.I.O.R. within planning and management (operational and real time) of Local Public Transport systems.

The call can be found at

https://alboufficiale.unipi.it/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Bando_RTDA_PON_43.pdf

(it's one of 43 positions, check the record RIC2021PON_A19) and the strict deadline for applications is 13:00 November 4, 2021 (Italian time). Selection procedures are expected to be completed before year's end with the position starting around February 2022 at the latest.

Thank you for helping us to disseminate the news to any potentially interested researcher. Further information about the project and the working environment at the Department of Computer Science of the University of Pisa can be requested to Antonio Frangioni <frangio@di.unipi.it> and Laura Galli <galli@di.unipi.it>. In particular, sorry for the call text being Italian-only. A bout of Google Translator or suchlike should be enough to get the gist of it (the important part so far are Articles 2 to 5), but should you need any clarification about the selection procedure do not hesitate to rely on us.
