MDPI Algorithms Journal
Special Issue on Parallel Algorithms for Combinatorial Optimization Problems
(http://www.mdpi.com/journal/algorithms/special_issues/parallel_algorithms)
Scope
Combinatorial optimization problems model most of the application scenarios
frequently arising in practice. Unfortunately, optimal solutions to these
problems are hard to obtain, with most of them having high computational
complexity. Even in the case of problems admitting polynomial time
solutions, e.g., the classical shortest path problem, the relevant
applications should now work on very large input instances or should cope
with a large number of concurrent users. Thus, faster solution methods are
clearly needed for achieving real time responses for problems previously
considered as easy ones. The same also holds for most heuristic methods or
approximation algorithms that have been proposed for obtaining approximate
solutions for hard optimization problems in acceptable execution times. For
large-scale problems, these techniques are inadequate, and much faster
algorithmic techniques are needed again.
Due to the aforementioned limitations, parallelism has been considered a
means of deriving faster algorithmic solutions. Parallel computation is
virtually ubiquitous nowadays and can be found in all modern computing
platforms. Although the concept of parallel execution is simple, its
application on combinatorial optimization problems is not straightforward,
due to the inherently irregular control flow that the algorithms for this
kind of problem commonly have. In this Special Issue, we solicit
contributions that will propose new methodologies for solving problems in
combinatorial optimization using parallel computation, either in
shared-memory systems (e.g., multi-core/many-core processors, GPUs, etc.) or
in distributed-memory systems (e.g., clusters, cloud architectures, etc.).
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Parallel exact algorithms: e.g., divide-and-conquer, dynamic programming,
etc.
- Parallel approximation algorithms- Parallel fixed parameter algorithms
- Parallel heuristics/metaheuristics for combinatorial optimization
problems: e.g., local search, simulated annealing, evolutionary computation,
swarm intelligence computation, etc.
- Parallel techniques in integer linear programming: e.g., parallelization
of branch-and-bound, column generation, and cutting plane methods or their
combinations (i.e., branch-and-cut or branch-and-price).
- Parallel algorithms for multi-objective optimization problems.

20th European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software
ETAPS 2017
Uppsala, Sweden, 23-29 April 2017
http://www.etaps.org/2017/
Call for Satellite Events
-- ABOUT ETAPS --
The European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software
(ETAPS) is the primary European forum for academic and industrial
researchers working on topics relating to Software Science. It is an
annual event held in Europe each spring since 1998. Its twentieth
edition, ETAPS 2017, will take place 23-29 April 2017 in Uppsala,
Sweden.
ETAPS 2017 main conferences, scheduled for 25-28 April, are:
* ESOP: European Symposium on Programming
* FASE: Fundamental Approaches to Software Engineering
* FOSSACS: Foundations of Software Science and
Computation Structures
* POST: Principles of Security and Trust
* TACAS: Tools and Algorithms for the Construction and
Analysis of Systems
-- SATELLITE EVENTS --
The ETAPS 2017 organizing committee invites proposals for satellite
events (workshops) that will complement the main conferences. They
should fall within the scope of ETAPS. This encompasses all aspects of
the system development process, including specification, design,
implementation, analysis and improvement, as well as the languages,
methodologies and tools which support these activities, covering a
spectrum from practically-motivated theory to soundly-based
practice. Satellite events provide an opportunity to discuss and
report on emerging research approaches and practical experience
relevant to theory and practice of software.
ETAPS 2017 satellite events will be held immediately before and after
the main conferences, on 23-24 April and 29 April.
-- ARRANGEMENTS FOR SATELLITE EVENTS --
The organizers of an ETAPS 2017 satellite are expected to:
* create and maintain a website for the event,
* form a PC, produce a call for papers for the event (if appropriate),
* advertise the event through specialist mailing lists etc. to
complement the publicity of ETAPS,
* review the submissions received and make acceptance decisions,
* prepare an informal (pre)proceedings for the event (if appropriate),
* prepare the event's program complying with any scheduling
constraints defined by the ETAPS 2017 organizing committee,
* prepare and organize the publication of a formal (post)proceedings
(if desired).
The ETAPS 2017 organizing committee will:
* promote the event on the website and in the publicity material of
ETAPS 2017,
* integrate the event's program into the overall program of the
conference,
* arrange registration for the event as a component of registration
for ETAPS,
* collect a participation fee from the registrants,
* produce a compilation USB memory stick of the informal
(pre)proceedings of the satellite events of ETAPS 2017 and
distribute this to the registrants,
* provide the event with a meeting room of an appropriate size, A/V
equipment, coffee breaks and possibly lunch(es).
As a rule, ETAPS will not contribute toward the travel or
accommodation costs of invited speakers or organizers of satellite
events.
-- SUBMISSION OF SATELLITE EVENT PROPOSALS --
Researchers and practitioners wishing to organize satellite events are
invited to submit proposals to the workshop co-chairs Konstantinos
Sagonas and Mohamed Faouzi Atig using the web form at
http://www.etaps.org/2017/call-for-workshops .
The following information is requested:
* the name and acronym of the satellite event
* the names and contact information of the organizers
* the duration of the event: one or two days
* the preferred period: 23 April, 24 April, 23-24 April or 29 April
* the expected number of participants
* a brief description (120 words approximately) of the event topic for
the website and publicity material of ETAPS 2017
* a brief explanation of the event topic and its relevance to ETAPS
* an explanation of the selection procedure of contributions to the
event, the PC chair and members, if known already, information about
past editions of the event, if applicable
* any other relevant information, like a special event format, invited
speakers, demo sessions, special space requirements, etc.
* a tentative schedule for paper submission, notification of
acceptance and final versions for the (informal pre-)proceedings
(the ETAPS 2017 organizing committee will need the final files by
the end of Feb. 2017)
* the plans for formal publication (no formal publication, formal
proceedings ready by the event, formal post-proceedings, publication
venue - EPTCS or elsewhere)
The proposals will be evaluated by the ETAPS 2017 organizing committee
on the basis of their assessed benefit for prospective participants of
ETAPS 2017. Prospective organizers may wish to consult the web pages
of previous satellite events as examples:
