SEA 2022 Call for Papers

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
Analysis of Algorithms
Approximation Techniques
Bioinformatics and Computational Biology
Branch-and-Bound Algorithms
Combinatorial and Irregular Problems
Combinatorial Structures and Graphs
Communication Networks
Computational Geometry
Computational Optimization
Data Structures
Distributed and Parallel Algorithms
Heuristics for Combinatorial Optimization
Information Retrieval
Integer Programming
Logistics and Operations Management
Machine Learning and Data Mining
Mathematical Programming
Multiple Criteria Decision Making
Network Analysis
Online Problems
Railway Optimization using Algorithmic Methods
Semidefinite Programming
Software Repositories and Platforms for using Algorithms
Telecommunications and Networking

We further emphasize that SEA welcomes submissions that introduce novel applications of algorithms in other disciplines.

Best Paper Award

The program committee will identify one submission as the best paper.
