***********************************************************
The Symposium of Experimental Algorithms 2024 (SEA24) will take place from 23 to 26 July 2024 in Vienna, Austria, at the University of Vienna in the Sky Lounge, located high above the roofs in the city center.
SEA aims to attract papers from the Computer Science community, the Operations Research/Mathematical Programming community and any other scientific community that is concerned with the main theme of the symposium, namely the role of experimentation and of algorithm engineering techniques in the design and evaluation of algorithms and data structures. Submissions should present significant contributions supported by experimental evaluation, methodological issues in the design and interpretation of experiments, the use of (meta-)heuristics, or application-driven case studies that deepen the understanding of the complexity of a problem.
TOPICS OF INTEREST
Contributions solicited cover a variety of topics including but not limited to:
Algorithm Engineering
Algorithmic Libraries and Software Repositories
Algorithmic Cryptography and Security
Algorithmic Natural Language Processing
Algorithmics for Databases
Analysis of Algorithms
Approximation Algorithms
Bioinformatics and Computational Biology
Branch-and-Bound Algorithms
Combinatorial Problems and Structures
Communication Networks
Computational Geometry
Computational Optimization
Data Structures
Distributed and Parallel Algorithms
Graph Algorithms
Heuristic Algorithms
Integer Programming
Logistics and Operations Management
Machine Learning and Data Mining
Mathematical Programming
Multiple Criteria Decision Making
Network Analysis
Online Problems
Randomized Algorithms
Semidefinite Programming
Streaming and External Memory Algorithms
We emphasize that SEA welcomes submissions that introduce novel applications of algorithms in other disciplines. Note that the SEA list of topics was updated with respect to past years.
INVITED SPEAKERS
Nick Higham, University of Manchester <https://nhigham.com/>
Pascal Schweitzer, TU Darmstadt <https://www.mathematik.tu-darmstadt.de/fb/personal/details/pascal_schweitzer.de.jsp>
Yllka Velaj, University of Vienna <https://dm.cs.univie.ac.at/team/person/111869/>
BEST PAPER AWARD
The program committee will identify a submission as the best paper.
PROCEEDINGS
The conference proceedings will be published in the Leibniz International Proceedings in Informatics (LIPIcs, <https://www.dagstuhl.de/en/publications/lipics/>), a series of high-quality conference proceedings across all fields in informatics established in cooperation with Schloss Dagstuhl Leibniz Center for Informatics. SEA Proceedings volumes are published according to the principle of OpenAccess, i.e., they are available online and free of charge.
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
The authors should submit a paper not exceeding 12 pages, excluding the bibliography, the front page (authors, affiliation, keywords, abstract, ...), and brief appendix of up to 5 pages (figures and tables should be counted as part of the space occupied by the appendix).
Authors are required to use the LaTeX style file supplied for the LIPIcs style <https://submission.dagstuhl.de/series/details/LIPIcs#author>, without changing default values nor setting font size options in the "documentclass" statement. Final proceedings papers must be camera-ready in this format. We emphasize that a clearly marked Appendix of up to 5 pages, which will not count toward the 12 page submission limit, can be included and will be read at the referees' discretion. All submissions have to be made via the EasyChair submission page for the conference <https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sea24>.
Papers submitted for review should represent original, previously unpublished work or surveys of important results. At the time the paper is submitted to SEA, and for the entire review period, the paper (or essentially the same paper) should not be under review by any other conference with published proceedings or by a scientific journal. At least one author of each accepted paper will be expected to attend the conference and present the paper. Specifically, no accepted paper will be published unless an author registers to participate in the conference.
Authors are strongly encouraged to include a link to the source code and/or datasets to increase confidence in the reproducibility of their experiments; the code may be read and/or executed at the referees' discretion.
Full papers must be submitted via EasyChair by January 29, 2024, AoE
Authors will be notified of acceptance status by March 15, 2024, AoE
Final version due: April 28, 2024, AoE
Final versions of accepted papers will be submitted to Dagstuhl's Leibniz International Proceedings in Informatics (LIPIcs). Details about the submission server will be communicated to corresponding authors of accepted papers.
