Frontiers In Algorithmics

The Third International Frontiers of Algorithmics Workshop (FAW 2009), held during June 20–23,2009 at Hefei University of Technology, Hefei, Anhui, China, continued to provide a focused forum on current trends in research on algori- mics,includingdiscretestructures,andtheirapplications.We aimatstimulating the various ?elds for which algorithmics can become a crucial enabler, and to strengthenthe ties between the Easternand Westernalgorithmicsresearchc- munities as well as theory and practice of algorithmics. We had three distinguished invited speakers: Guoliang Chen, Andrew Chi- Chih Yao and Frances Foong Yao, speaking on parallel computing, communication complexity and applications, and computer and network power management. The ?nal program also included 33 peer-reviewed papers selected out of 87 contributed submissions, covering topics including approximation and online - gorithms; computational geometry; graph theory and graph algorithms; games and applications; heuristics; large-scale data mining; machine learning; pattern recognition algorithms; and parameterized algorithms. April 2009 Xiaotie Deng John Hopcroft Jinyun Xue Organization FAW 2009 was organized by Hefei University of Technology, China.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First Annual International Frontiers of Algorithmics Workshop, FAW 2007, held in Lanzhou, China in August 2007. Topics covered in the papers include bioinformatics, discrete structures, geometric information processing and communication, games and incentive analysis, graph algorithms, internet algorithms and protocols, and algorithms in medical applications.

The Annual International Frontiers in Algorithmics Workshop is a focused - rum on current trends in research on algorithms, discrete structures, and their applications. It intends to bring together international experts at the research frontiers in those areas to exchange ideas and to present signi?cant new results. The mission of the workshop is to stimulate the various ?elds for which al- rithmics can become a crucial enabler, and to strengthen the ties between the Eastern and Western algorithmics research communities. The Second Inter- tional Frontiers in Algorithmics Workshop (FAW 2008) took place in Changsha, China, June 19–21, 2008. In response to the Call for Papers, 80 papers were submitted from 15 co- tries and regions: Canada, China, France, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong, India, Iran, Japan, Mexico, Norway, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, and the USA. After a six-week period of careful reviewing and discussion, the Program C- mittee accepted 32 submissions for presentation at the conference. These papers were selected for nine special focus tracks in the areas of biomedical inform- ics, discrete structures, geometric information processing and communication, games and incentive analysis, graph algorithms, internet algorithms and pro- cols, parameterized algorithms, design and analysis of heuristics, approximate and online algorithms, and machine learning. The program of FAW 2008 also included three keynote talks by Xiaotie Deng, John E. Hopcroft, and Milan Sonka.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International Frontiers of Algorithmics Workshop, FAW 2009, held in Hefei, Anhui, China, in June 2009. The 33 revised full papers presented together with the abstracts of 3 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 87 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on graph algorithms; game theory with applications; graph theory, computational geometry; machine learning; parameterized algorithms, heuristics and analysis; approximation algorithms; as well as pattern recognition algorithms, large scale data mining.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 13th International Workshop on Frontiers in Algorithmics, FAW 2019, held in Sanya, China, in April/May 2019. The 15 full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 21 submissions. The workshop provides a focused forum on current trends of research on algorithms, discrete structures, and their applications, and brings together international experts at the research frontiers in these areas to exchange ideas and to present significant new results.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Frontiers of Algorithmics Workshop, FAW 2013, and the 9th International Conference on Algorithmic Aspects in Information and Management, AAIM 2013, jointly held in Dalian, China, in June 2013. The 33 revised full papers presented together with 2 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 60 submissions. The Joint Conference provide a focused forum on current trends of research on algorithms, discrete structures, operation research, combinatorial optimization and their applications, and will bring together international experts at the research frontiers in these areas to exchange ideas and to present significant new results. The mission of the Joint Conference is to stimulate the various fields for which algorithmics can become a crucial enabler, and to strengthen the ties between the Eastern and Western research communities of algorithmics and applications.
