39th International Symposium on
Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science
MFCS 2014

Budapest, August 25--29, 2014
www.inf.u-szeged.hu/mfcs2014/

The series of MFCS symposia, organized since 1972, has a long and
well-established tradition. The MFCS conferences encourage high-quality
research in all branches of theoretical computer science. Their broad
scope provides an opportunity to bring together researchers who do not
usually meet at specialized conferences.

Principal topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
algorithms and data structures (incl. sequential, parallel,
distributed, randomized, approximation, graph, network, on-line,
parameterized, optimization algorithms), algorithmic game theory,
algorithmic learning theory, computational complexity (structural and
model-related), computational geometry, models of computation, networks
(incl. wireless, sensor, ad-hoc networks), parallel and distributed
computing, quantum computing, automata, grammars and formal languages,
combinatorics on words, trees, and other structures, bioinformatics,
computer-assisted reasoning, concurrency theory, cryptography and
security, databases and knowledge-based systems, formal specifications
and program development, foundations of computing, logic, algebra and
categories in computer science, types in computer science, mobile
computing, semantics and verification of programs, theoretical issues
in artificial intelligence.

The scientific program of MFCS 2014 contains 7 invited lectures and
presentations of 95 contributed papers.

Session description:
For several decades, the scheduling problems have constituted a
privileged topic. Motivated by their industrial applications, several
research teams studied these problems and proposed various models and
resolution approaches. The aim of this

Special session is to present the recent heuristics and approximation
algorithms in this field. Theoretical and practical works can both be
submitted. Both works with applicative or theoretical aspects are
encouraged. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the
following topics:



Topics:
- Scheduling theory
- Approximation algorithms and schemes applied to solve scheduling problems
- Heuristic and metaheuristic approaches
- Polynomial approximation
- Worste-case analysis of heuristics
