Call for Papers

GD 2015

23rd International Symposium on
Graph Drawing and Network Visualization

September 24-26, 2015 - Los Angeles, CA, USA
http://www.csun.edu/gd2015/

===========================================================================

Graph Drawing is concerned with the geometric representation of graphs and
constitutes the algorithmic core of Network Visualization. Graph Drawing and
Network Visualization are motivated by applications where it is crucial to
visually analyze and interact with relational datasets. Examples of such
application areas include social sciences, Internet and Web computing,
information systems, computational biology, networking, VLSI circuit
design,
and software engineering.

The International Symposium on Graph Drawing has been the main annual event
in this area for more than twenty years. This year the Steering
Committee of
GD decided to extend the name of the conference from the "International
Symposium on Graph Drawing" to the "International Symposium on Graph
Drawing
and Network Visualization" in order to better emphasize the dual focus of
the conference on combinatorial and algorithmic aspects as well as the
design
of network visualization systems and interfaces.

The conference will be hosted by the California State University at
Northridge,
in Los Angeles, CA, from September 24 to 26, 2015. Researchers and
practitioners
working on any aspect of graph drawing and network visualization are
invited to
contribute papers and posters and to participate in the symposium and
the graph
drawing contest.

PAPERS
------

We invite authors to submit papers describing original research of
theoretical
or practical significance to graph drawing and network visualization.
Regular
papers must be submitted explicitly to one of two distinct tracks. Papers
submitted to one track will not compete with papers submitted to the
other track.

Track 1: Combinatorial and algorithmic aspects
----------------------------------------------

This track is mainly devoted to fundamental graph drawing advances, such as
combinatorial aspects and algorithm design. The range of topics for
this track
includes (but is not limited to) the following:

* Design and analysis of graph drawing algorithms
* Theory of geometric graphs
* Geometric computing
* Planarity and topological graph theory
* Optimization on graphs

Track 2: Experimental, applied, and network visualization aspects
-----------------------------------------------------------------

This track is mainly devoted to the practical aspects of graph drawing,
such as
the development of network visualization systems and interfaces in
different
application areas. The range of topics for this track includes (but is not
limited to) the following:

* Visualization of graphs and networks in application areas (e.g.,
social
sciences, biology, geography, software engineering, circuit design,
business intelligence)
* Software systems for network visualization
* The engineering of visualization systems and algorithms
* Experimental results in graph theory and graph algorithms
* Benchmarks and experimental analysis for network visualization
systems and
user interfaces
* Cognitive studies on graph drawing readability and user interaction
* Interfaces for interacting with graphs

Notes and Demos
---------------

Besides the two tracks above there will be a separate category called
"Notes
and Demos". In this category it will be possible to submit theoretical
contributions (notes) and applied papers (demos) of shorter length. Papers
in this category will be assigned a shorter time for presentation during
the
conference. In addition, the authors of demo papers will have the
opportunity
to make a demo of their software/system during the poster session.

Submission format
-----------------

All submissions must be formatted using the LaTeX style file for the
conference
series Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) provided by Springer.
The margins and font size must not be modified. Submissions that do not
comply
with this format risk being rejected. The length of regular papers is
limited
to 12 pages, while the length of notes and demos is limited to 6 pages. The
claims of the paper should be fully substantiated, including full proofs or
appropriate experimental data. If this information does not fit within
the page
limits, the authors should include it in a clearly marked appendix,
whose length
is not constrained and which the reviewers may read at their own discretion.

POSTERS
-------

Submissions of posters on graph drawing, network visualization, and related
areas are also solicited. The poster session will provide a forum for the
communication of late-breaking research results (which may also appear
elsewhere) to the graph drawing community. Authors of posters should
prepare
an abstract (up to two pages in the LNCS style) that must be submitted
together with the poster.


CONTEST
-------

Following the tradition of previous conferences, a Graph Drawing Contest
will
be held. Details about the contest will be provided on the conference
Web site.

PUBLICATION
-----------

Accepted papers (regular ones, notes and demos) will appear in the
conference
proceedings, published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science
series. Twelve pages will be allocated for regular papers and six for notes
and demos. Abstracts of accepted posters will also appear in the conference
proceedings (two pages), but will not be made available for indexing.
Selected papers will be invited for submission to a special issue of the
Journal of Graph Algorithms and Applications.

AWARDS
------

For each of the two tracks, the Program Committee of GD 2015 will give a
Best Paper Award. In addition, to recognize the effort of participants to
present their work in a clear and elegant way, there will be a Best
Presentation
Award voted on by the GD 2015 attendees.

ICT and Green are two tightly related concepts. Indeed, ICT systems might support sustainability in different ways. On the one hand, the design of more efficient ICT systems can contribute in decreasing the energy consumption related to ICT that is continuously increasing. For example, in some regions of the world (e.g., US and UK) the energy consumed by the data centers is close to 10% of the total energy consumed in the area by the country. On the other hand, ICT can be used to monitor the impact of other systems (e.g., buildings, transportation) on the environmental sustainability and to support green-aware decisions. The purpose of ICGreen is to bring together researchers and practitioners that deal with the design of Green ICT systems or of ICT use for environmental sustainability.

More information on the Conference can be found at the Conference Web site:
http://www.icgreen.org/

MAPSP 2015 - Call for Papers (Extended Deadline: Feb. 16, 2015)

Twelfth Workshop on Models and Algorithms for Planning and Scheduling Problems

MAPSP2015 will take place in a relaxed atmosphere in the heart of the Ardennes, a hilly and forested region of Belgium. There will be ample opportunity for hiking and other sporty leisure, as well as for tasting world-famous Belgian beers; furthermore, we expect to have a great scientific program!

Date: June 8-12, 2015
Location: La Roche-en-Ardenne, Belgium

Site: http://www.mapsp2015.com/

MAPSP is a biennial workshop dedicated to all theoretical and practical aspects of scheduling, planning, and timetabling. Registration costs are 425 euro per person (including all meals), and room costs are either 47 or 62 euro per person per night (depending upon whether a room is shared).

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Submissions:

MAPSP submissions undergo a selection process based on a light refereeing by the Program Committee. MAPSP does not publish proceedings other than a conference booklet (with an ISBN number). Hence, presenting your paper at MAPSP will not prevent you from submitting it to journals or to other conferences. Similarly, it is acceptable to submit a paper that was presented at an earlier conference.

Abstracts of 2-3 pages must be submitted using Easychair according to the guidelines at www.mapsp2015.com.

We intend to publish a special issue of the Journal of Scheduling including some of the contributions presented at the workshop. Papers submitted for this special issue will undergo the usual reviewing process of Journal of Scheduling.
