[CPM-SPIRE-L] 3rd CFP: Special Issue on Combinatorial Methods for String Processing

[Shunsuke Inenaga]

Dear Colleagues,

This is the 3rd CFP for the following special issue:

Special Issue Title: Combinatorial Methods for String Processing
Journal: Algorithms
Submission Deadline: 1 December, 2020

Strings, or sequences, are the most fundamental form of digital data.
Due to recent developments in sensor network technologies and
semi-automated machine-to-machine (M2M) communications, sequential
data have been increasing more rapidly than ever. It is often the case
that such semi-automatically generated sequential data contain
abundant repetitive structures. Thus, understanding, revealing, and
utilizing combinatorial objects that reside in strings are of great
significance in designing efficient string processing algorithms and
data structures. This Special Issue on “Combinatorial Methods for
String Processing” aims exactly at this goal.

We cordially invite you to submit high-quality papers to this Special
Issue. Typical topics of interests include (but are not limited to):

- Combinatorial string problems and solutions
- Pattern matching algorithms
- Applied combinatorics on words
- Text compression
- Data structures for strings, labeled trees, and compressed text

More details for the special issue can be found at:

Looking forward to your submissions.

Best,
Shunsuke
