Dear colleagues,
It is my pleasure to invite you to participate in the 1st International Online Conference on Algorithms (IOCA 2021). Since the global pandemic has forced us to reduce our mobility, this event will occur completely online at https://ioca2021.sciforum.net/ between September 27 and October 10, 2021.
IOCA 2021 aims to promote and advance all disciplines of the development of algorithms, a field that is rapidly growing. Both theoretical and application works are welcome. The conference will bring together impressive researchers and practitioners currently working in the area of the design and analysis of algorithms and their latest results will be presented. Subjects of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Databases and Data Structures;
- Combinatorial Optimization, Graph and Network Algorithms;
- Evolutionary Algorithms and Machine Learning;
- Parallel and Distributed Algorithms;
- Randomized, Online and Approximation Algorithms;
- Analysis of Algorithms and Complexity Theory;
- Algorithms for Multidisciplinary Applications.
Submitted abstracts will be reviewed by the conference committee. The authors of the accepted contributions will be invited to prepare an extended abstract for the conference proceedings, as well as a slide presentation of their work. IOCA 2021 will make your presentation accessible to hundreds of researchers worldwide. Participants will also be invited to submit an extended version for publication in the journal Algorithms, published by MDPI, after the conference is over.
I am looking forward to receiving many submissions of your recent work in the field of algorithms and I hope that you will join us in this exciting new form of conference.
If you need extension after the abstract deadline, please feel free to contact us.
Kind regards,
Frank Werner
Chair of the 1st International Online Conference on Algorithms
