The 16th International Conference on Algorithmic Aspects in Information and Management (AAIM 2022) will be held during August 13-14, 2022. Interesting new results in all areas of algorithm design, operation research and combinatorial optimization and their applications are welcome. Both theoretical and experimental/applied works of general algorithmic interest are sought. Special considerations will be given to algorithmic research that is motivated by real-world applications. Experimental and applied papers are expected to show convincingly the usefulness and efficiency of the target algorithms in practical settings.

The topics include, but are not limited to:

Algorithms and data structures
Algorithmic game theory and incentive analysis
Approximation algorithms and online algorithms
Automata, languages, logic, and computability
Bioinformatics, computational biology and medicine, and biomedical applications
Biomedical imaging algorithms
Blockchain
Combinatorial optimization
Combinatorics and discrete structures related to algorithms and complexity
Communication networks and optimization
Complexity theory
Computational algebra, geometry, number theory, and statistics
Computational learning theory, knowledge discovery, and data mining
Cryptography, reliability, and security
Database theory, large databases, and natural language processing
Experimental algorithmic methodologies
Geometric information processing and communication
Graph algorithms and theory
Graph drawing and information visualization
Internet algorithms and protocols
Large graph algorithms and social network analysis
Optimization algorithms in economic and operations research
Parallel and distributed computing and multicore algorithms
Parameterized algorithms, heuristics, and analysis
Pattern recognition algorithms
Trustworthy algorithms and trustworthy software

Paper Submission
AAIM 2022 will only accept electronic (PS or PDF) submissions via Springer Online Conference Service. Register your account at Springer EquinOCS. Paper submission Link: Springer EquinOCS AAIM2022 Homepage.

Only previously unpublished new results will be considered for publication. Papers that have already been published or simultaneously submitted at another journal or conference (with published proceedings) will not be considered.

A submission should start with the title of the paper, each author's name, affiliation, and e-mail address, and a one-paragraph summary of the results. This should be followed by a scholarly exposition of the ideas, techniques, and a full description of the results achieved. A clear indication of the motivation and comparison with prior or related work should be presented. The paper should not exceed 12 pages, including bibliography, formatted for letter-size paper using 10 point font, with at least one inch margins around. Authors are required to submit their papers in the Springer LNCS Format. For more information, please visit Information for LNCS Authors.

Additional details can be included in a clearly marked appendix, to be consulted at the discretion of program committee members. The appendix is not included in the page limit, and will not be published in the conference proceedings.

Submissions that deviate significantly from these guidelines or are unprintable risk rejection without consideration of their merit.

At least one author of an accepted paper is expected to present the paper at the conference as a registered participant.

Publication and Special Issue
The conference proceedings will be published by Springer-Verlag in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series. After the conference, selected papers will be invited to a special issue of journals: Theoretical Computer Science, Journal of Combinatorial Optimization. The invited papers will go through the normal reviewing process.
