AIMS:

AlCoB aims at promoting and displaying excellent research using string and
graph algorithms and combinatorial optimization to deal with problems in
biological sequence analysis, genome rearrangement, evolutionary trees, and

The conference will address several of the current challenges in
computational biology by investigating algorithms aimed at: 1) assembling
sequence reads into a complete genome, 2) identifying gene structures in the
genome, 3) recognizing regulatory motifs, 4) aligning nucleotides and
comparing genomes, 5) reconstructing regulatory networks of genes, and 6)
inferring the evolutionary phylogeny of species.

Particular focus will be put on methodology and significant room will be
reserved to young scholars at the beginning of their career.

Call for Papers

With great pleasure we announce a special issue of the EURO Journal on
Computational Optimization about "Computational Optimization in Disaster
Risk Management".

Optimization methods have been playing a successful role in all parts of
disaster risk management (DRM) for natural and man-made disasters,
including preparedness, mitigation, response and recovery. With this
special issue we aim at collecting new modeling approaches and solution
algorithms for DRM. We are looking forward to new, original research in
quantitative methods with direct reference to its practical
applications. The focus of submitted papers should be on the derivation
of new optimization models, their implementation, and computational
experiments with realistic datasets.

Invited topics for this special issue include, but are not limited to:
- Location problems
- Scheduling and logistics problems
- Routing problems
- Traffic control and contraflows
- Algorithms for decision support
- Network optimization
- Multi-objective optimization
- Optimization under uncertainty
- Data aggregation

Following the journal's high standards, we expect high quality
contributions that will undergo the strict reviewing process of EJCO.
Submission deadline is

*March 31, 2015.*

In order to submit a paper for the special issue,

1. Log on the editorial manager using the <Author Login> via the website
https://www.editorialmanager.com/ejco/

2. Select <Submit New Manuscript> in the main menu.

3. In the drop down list associated with <Choose Article Type>, select
the desired special issue ("SI: Emergency Planning"). Note that all
entries corresponding to the special issues start with SI.

We are looking forward to receiving your contributions.

CALL FOR PAPERS

22nd International Colloquium on Structural Information and
Communication Complexity
SIROCCO 2015

http://sirocco2015.cs.upb.de

July 15-17, 2015
Montserrat, Spain
Deadline for submissions: April 30, 2015
***********************************************************************

SIROCCO is devoted to the study of communication and knowledge in
multi-processor systems from both the qualitative and quantitative viewpoints.
Special emphasis is given to innovative approaches and fundamental
understanding, in addition to efforts to optimize current designs. SIROCCO has
a tradition of interesting and productive scientific meetings in a relaxed and
pleasant atmosphere, attracting leading researchers in a variety of fields in
which communication and knowledge play a significant role. This year, SIROCCO
is held in Montserrat, a beautiful location not far from Barcelona, Spain.

SCOPE: Original papers are solicited from all areas of study of local
structural knowledge and global communication and computational complexities.
Among the typical areas are distributed computing, communication networks,
game theory, parallel computing, social networks, mobile computing (including
autonomous robots), peer to peer systems, communication complexity, fault
tolerant graph theories, and randomized/probabilistic issues in networks.
Keeping up with the tradition of SIROCCO, new areas are always welcome. In
fact, this time we will have a special track on bio-inspired systems.

BEST STUDENT PAPER: A Best Student Paper Award will be awarded to a paper
coauthored by one or more full-time students at the time of submission. The
program committee may decline to make this awards or split it.

SUBMISSION: Papers are to be submitted electronically (through EasyChair).
Submission instructions and guidelines are available at the conference web
page. Authors are invited to submit their work in one of the three acceptable
formats: novel research contributions, position papers, and surveys. Original
research papers must contain results that have not previously appeared and
have not been concurrently submitted to a journal or conference with published
proceedings. In all cases, any partial overlap with any published or
concurrently submitted paper must be clearly indicated. Papers must be
prepared using the LNCS style and be electronically submitted in PDF format
using EasyChair. The main part of a submission should not exceed 15 pages
(including the title, authors, abstract, figures, and references). Any
additional information may be supplied in a clearly marked appendix.

PUBLICATION: As in previous years, the proceedings of SIROCCO 2015 are planned
to be published by Springer Verlag as a volume of the LNCS series. Selected
papers are planned to be invited to a special issue of the journal Theoretical
Computer Science.

IMPORTANT DATES
- Paper submission due: April 30, 2015 (UTC-12)
- Notification of acceptance: June 8, 2015

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral research fellowship funded
by an ERC Starting Grant project entitled "Random Graph Geometry and
Convergence". The post is for 2 years starting October 2015
(negotiable), with possibility of extension. Other starting dates can be
negotiated. A strong background in enumerative and analytic
combinatorics, or random graphs, or random walks on graphs or groups
would be an asset, but candidates from nearby fields are also welcome to
apply.

A PhD position for the same project is also available, with starting
date October 2015 or 2016.

Informal inquiries can be sent to Agelos Georgakopoulos (PI). The
Official application page for the postdoc position is
https://atsv7.wcn.co.uk/search_engine/jobs.cgi?owner=5062452&ownertype=fair&jcode=1452978&vt_template=1457&adminview=1

The application *deadline* is *1 Mar 2015*.

Inquiries about the PhD position should include a CV. Applications will
be handled by Warwick's standard proceedures, and there is no closing
date (but the earlier the better), see
http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/maths/postgrad/prospective/
