============================================================

The 38th Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM 2027)
seeks papers presenting original research, unpublished elsewhere, in all
areas related to combinatorial pattern matching and its applications.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, combinatorics on words;
string algorithms and data structures; exact, approximate, and parameterized
pattern matching; string indexing and compressed text processing; sequence
analysis and alignment; bioinformatics and computational biology; coding and
data compression; information retrieval and natural language processing;
pattern discovery; string processing in databases; and other algorithmic and
combinatorial aspects of processing strings, sequences, and related data.

Both papers reporting original research and surveys of important results are
welcome.

CPM 2027 will use two submission rounds. The first round aims to select
approximately half of the papers, while the second round will select the
remaining papers. Papers rejected from the first round may be resubmitted in
the second round, where they will compete with solicited new submissions.

The proceedings will be published in LIPIcs. The conference will be held in
London, United Kingdom, on June 16-18, 2027.

Submission Guidelines
============================================================

Submissions are made through the EasyChair conference system. Authors must
submit an extended abstract of at most 12 single-spaced pages on A4 paper,
excluding the title page and references. The title page should contain the
title, authors, affiliations, e-mail addresses, a short abstract, and
keywords.

Authors are required to use the LIPIcs LaTeX style. The submission must be
made as a single PDF file. The review process is single-blind, with anonymous
reviewers and non-anonymous authors.

Additional material intended for referees but not for publication in the
final version, such as details of proofs, may be included in a clearly marked
appendix that is not counted toward the page limit. For experimental papers,
program code should be made publicly available, together with reasonable
documentation, to allow the Program Committee to assess the replicability of
the experimental results.

Papers submitted to CPM must represent original, previously unpublished work.
At the time of submission, and throughout the review period, the paper (or an
essentially identical paper) must not be under review by another conference
with published proceedings or by a scientific journal.
