Call for Papers: WALCOM 2018
(cse.buet.ac.bd/walcom2018/)
-------------------------------

The 12th International Conference and Workshop on Algorithms and
Computation (WALCOM) is intended to provide an international forum for
researchers working in the areas of algorithms and computation. WALCOM 2018
will be held during March 03- 05, 2018 at Dhaka, Bangladesh. It is being
organized in cooperation with IEICE Technical Committee on Theoretical
Foundations of Computing (COMP), the Special Interest Group for ALgorithms
(SIGAL) of the Information Processing Society of Japan (IPSJ) and the EATCS
Japan Chapter.

Scope
------
The range of topics within the scope of WALCOM includes (but is not limited
to):

    Approximation Algorithms
    Algorithmic Graph Theory and Combinatorics
    Combinatorial Algorithms
    Combinatorial Optimization
    Computational Biology
    Computational Complexity
    Computational Geometry
    Discrete Geometry
    Data Structures
    Experimental Algorithm Methodologies
    Graph Algorithms
    Graph Drawing
    Parallel and Distributed Algorithms
    Parameterized Algorithms
    Parameterized Complexity
    Network Optimization
    Online Algorithms
    Randomized Algorithms
    String Algorithms

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 the
discretion of the Program Committee. Only electronic submissions via
Easychair will be allowed (Link:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=walcom2018). Submitted papers must
describe work not previously published. They must not be submitted
simultaneously to another conference with refereed proceedings or to a
journal.
Proceedings

Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings. Following
the tradition of the previous editions of WALCOM the proceedings will be
included in the Springer-Verlag series, Lecture Notes in Computer Science.

Venue
------
WALCOM 2018 will be held at the Department of CSE, BUET, ECE Building, West
Palasi, Dhaka.
