Regular papers:

Regular papers should report on original research, submitted exclusively
to this conference. Submissions may not exceed ten (10) single-spaced
double-column pages. (Papers will be judged based on their quality and
not their length---short papers are welcome.) The title page,
bibliography and designated figure pages (containing only figures) are
not counted toward the ten pages. (Illustrative figures are encouraged.)
All necessary details to substantiate the main claims of the paper
should be included in a clearly marked appendix. Regular papers will be
allotted up to 10 pages in the proceedings.

Brief announcements:

SPAA also solicits brief announcements that raise issues of interest to
the SPAA community. Brief announcements may not exceed two pages.
Examples of good brief announcements include: (i) papers previously
published elsewhere of interest to SPAA, (ii) work in progress, (iii)
announcement of tools/libraries, (iv) challenge problems posed to the
community, (v) corrections to earlier results. Brief announcements may
also include smaller results of interest.

Authors may request that a regular paper be considered as a brief
announcement. As far as possible, the program committee will remain
blind to this request until status as a regular paper has been resolved.
Such a request will not affect the chances of the manuscript to be
accepted as a regular paper.

Submission details:

Papers should be submitted in standard ACM format, i.e., 9-point font on
8.5x11 inch pages. For detailed submission instructions and formatting,
please see http://spaa.acm.org.

Awards:

Every regular paper is eligible for the best paper award.

AAIM 2016 Conference July 18-20, 2016
Bergamo University, Bergamo, Italy
http://aaim2016.wordpress.com/


The Eleventh International Conference on Algorithmic Aspects of
Information and Management will be hosted by University of Bergamo.
The conference will provide a forum on current trends of research on
algorithms, data structures, operation research, combinatorial
optimization and their applications.
AAIM will bring together international experts at the research
frontiers in these areas to exchange ideas and to present significant
new results.
Interesting new results in all areas of algorithm design, operation
research and combinatorial optimization and their applications are
welcome. Both theoretical and experimental/applied works of general
algorithmic interest are sought. Special considerations will be given
to algorithmic research that is motivated by real-world applications.
Experimental and applied papers are expected to show convincingly the
usefulness and efficiency of the target algorithms in practical
settings.

Typical, but not exclusive, topics of interest include:

Algorithms and data structures;
Algorithmic game theory and incentive analysis;
Approximation algorithms and online algorithms;
Automata, languages, logic, and computability;
Bioinformatics, computational biology and medicine, and biomedical
applications;
Biomedical imaging algorithms;
Combinatorial optimization;
Combinatorics and discrete structures related to algorithms and complexity;
Communication networks and optimization;
Complexity theory;
Computational algebra, geometry, number theory, and statistics;
Computational learning theory, knowledge discovery, and data mining;
Cryptography, reliability, and security;
Database theory, large databases, and natural language processing;
Experimental algorithmic methodologies;
Geometric information processing and communication;
Graph algorithms and theory;
Graph drawing and information visualization;
Internet algorithms and protocols;
Large graph algorithms and social network analysis;

Parameterized algorithms, heuristics, and analysis;
Pattern recognition algorithms;
Trustworthy algorithms and trustworthy software.


Important Dates:

Submission Deadline: February 19, 2016 (anywhere on Earth)
Author Notification: April 7, 2016
Final Manuscript Due: April 22, 2016
Conference: July 18-20, 2016

Submissions:
The submission deadline is February 19, 2016 (anywhere on Earth). AAIM
2016 will only accept electronic (PS or PDF) submissions via
easychair:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=aaim2016

E-mails will be sent to the authors to confirm the receipt of their
submissions within 24 hours. For any problem or question on
submissions, please send e-mails to aaim2016@easychair.org

Only previously unpublished new results will be considered for
publication. Papers that have already been published or simultaneously
submitted at another journal or conference (with published
proceedings) will not be considered.

A submission should start with the title of the paper, each author's
name, affiliation, and e-mail address, and a one-paragraph summary of
the results. This should be followed by a scholarly exposition of the
ideas, techniques, and a full description of the results achieved. A
clear indication of the motivation and comparison with prior or
related work should be presented. The paper should not exceed 12
pages, including bibliography, formatted for letter-size paper using
11 point or larger font, with at least one inch margins around.
Additional details can be included in a clearly marked appendix, to be
consulted at the discretion of program committee members. The appendix
is not included in the page limit, and will not be published in the
conference proceedings.

Submissions that deviate significantly from these guidelines or are
unprintable risk rejection without consideration of their merit.

At least one author of an accepted paper is expected to present the
paper at the conference as a registered participant.

The Proceedings of the Conference will be published by Springer in the
Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series, and will be available
for distribution at the conference.

Special Issues:
Selected high quality papers will be invited to a special issue of
Theoretical Computer Science. The invited papers will go through the
normal reviewing process.
