Call for Papers ESA'2014

22nd European Symposium on Algorithms ESA 2014
September 8 - 10, 2014, Wroclaw, Poland
http://algo2014.ii.uni.wroc.pl/esa/

The European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA) is one of the premier conferences on algorithms. The symposium covers research in all aspects of the design, analysis, engineering, and application of algorithms and data structures.

ESA 2014 has two tracks: the Design and Analysis Track (Track A) and the Engineering and Applications Track (Track B).

ESA 2014 is organized in collaboration with the European Association for Theoretical Computer Science (EATCS) and is a part of ALGO 2014.

CALL FOR PAPERS

The symposium seeks original algorithmic contributions for problems with relevant theoretical and/or practical applications: papers with
a strong emphasis on the theoretical analysis of algorithms should be submitted to Track A, while papers reporting on the results of extensive experimental evaluations and/or providing original contributions to the engineering of algorithms for practical applications should be submitted to Track B.

Papers should be submitted electronically via the EasyChair submission system. https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=esa20140

Submission guidelines can be found at http://algo2014.ii.uni.wroc.pl/esa/cfp.html
