<div dir="ltr">Dear Colleague,<br><br>A gentle reminder: the next *Data Compression Conference* (DCC<br>'24) will feature a special session on *Computation over Compressed Data*.<br>This session extends the special sessions at DCC '14, '16, '18, '20, and<br>'22, and we invite you to submit interesting new results you may have both<br>on *compact data structures* and on *compression-aware algorithms* (i.e.,<br>those that run faster on compressible inputs). Selected papers from those<br>previous sessions were published in special issues of the *Journal of<br>Discrete Algorithms* (March 2017), *Algorithmica* (July 2018) and<br>*Information and Computation* (2020, 2022, and one in preparation). If we<br>again receive enough suitable papers, we will arrange another special<br>issue of a comparable journal for extended versions of some of them.<br><br>Papers are due by *November 1st*, 2023 (23:59 PST) and the conference will<br>take place from March 19th to 22th, in Snowbird, Utah (a premier ski resort<br>in the Rocky Mountains). The DCC submission process (see<br><a href="http://www.cs.brandeis.edu/~dcc/Call.html">http://www.cs.brandeis.edu/~dcc/Call.html</a>) will allow authors to direct<br>their papers to the special session, but submissions will be otherwise<br>handled in the same way, will be subject to the same review process and,<br>if accepted, will be included in the same proceedings.<br><br>Best regards,<br>Dominik Kempa and Nicola Prezza<br>(session co-chairs)<br><br clear="all"><div><br></div><span class="gmail_signature_prefix">-- </span><br><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-stretch:inherit;font-size:12px;line-height:inherit;font-family:"Segoe UI","Segoe UI Web",Arial,Verdana,sans-serif;vertical-align:baseline;color:rgb(0,0,0);clear:both"><p lang="IT-IT" style="margin:0px;color:windowtext"><span lang="IT-IT" style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-style:inherit;font-weight:bold;font-stretch:inherit;font-size:11pt;line-height:18px;font-family:Arial,Arial_EmbeddedFont,Arial_MSFontService,sans-serif;vertical-align:baseline;color:rgb(0,36,81)"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font:inherit;vertical-align:baseline;color:inherit">Nicola Prezza</span></span><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-style:inherit;font-variant:inherit;font-weight:inherit;font-stretch:inherit;font-size:11pt;line-height:18px;font-family:Arial,Arial_EmbeddedFont,Arial_MSFontService,sans-serif;vertical-align:baseline;color:inherit"> </span></p></div><div style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-stretch:inherit;font-size:12px;line-height:inherit;font-family:"Segoe UI","Segoe UI Web",Arial,Verdana,sans-serif;vertical-align:baseline;color:rgb(0,0,0);clear:both"><p lang="IT-IT" style="margin:0px;color:windowtext"><span lang="IT-IT" style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-style:inherit;font-weight:inherit;font-stretch:inherit;font-size:9pt;line-height:14px;font-family:Arial,Arial_EmbeddedFont,Arial_MSFontService,sans-serif;vertical-align:baseline;color:rgb(0,36,81)"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font:inherit;vertical-align:baseline;color:inherit">Associate Professor</span></span><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-style:inherit;font-variant:inherit;font-weight:inherit;font-stretch:inherit;font-size:9pt;line-height:14px;font-family:Arial,Arial_EmbeddedFont,Arial_MSFontService,sans-serif;vertical-align:baseline;color:inherit"> </span></p></div><div style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-stretch:inherit;line-height:inherit;vertical-align:baseline;clear:both"><p lang="IT-IT" style="margin:0px"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-stretch:inherit;line-height:14px;vertical-align:baseline"><font color="#002451" face="Arial, Arial_EmbeddedFont, Arial_MSFontService, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12px">Department of Environmental Sciences, Informatics and Statistics</span></font><br style="margin:0px"></span><span lang="IT-IT" style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-style:inherit;font-weight:inherit;font-stretch:inherit;font-size:9pt;line-height:14px;font-family:Arial,Arial_EmbeddedFont,Arial_MSFontService,sans-serif;vertical-align:baseline;color:rgb(0,36,81);font-size:9pt;border-style:initial;border-color:initial;font-style:inherit;font-weight:inherit;font-stretch:inherit"></span><span style="color:inherit;font-family:Arial,Arial_EmbeddedFont,Arial_MSFontService,sans-serif;font-size:9pt;margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-style:inherit;font-variant:inherit;font-weight:inherit;font-stretch:inherit;line-height:14px;vertical-align:baseline"> </span></p></div><div style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-stretch:inherit;font-size:12px;line-height:inherit;font-family:"Segoe UI","Segoe UI Web",Arial,Verdana,sans-serif;vertical-align:baseline;color:rgb(0,0,0);clear:both"><p lang="IT-IT" style="margin:0px;color:windowtext"><span lang="IT
