AUTHOR INSTRUCTIONS
Authors are invited to submit papers (extended
abstracts) describing original research of theoretical or
practical significance to algorithms and computation.
Papers should not exceed 12 pages in LNCS style. Papers
significantly shorter than 12 pages are also welcome. 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
