Subject: [DMANET] SPAA 2016: Call for Brief Announcements
Message-ID: <56C62D68.70206@hawaii.edu>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed

The deadline for Brief Announcements is February 26, 11:59pm HAST. The
full call for papers is at the end of the email.

Our goal this year is to encourage interesting brief announcements that
live up to the idea of a brief announcement: something that is of
interest to the SPAA community but is not a standard 10-page research paper.

Currently, on the submission form, we request brief announcements of the
following form:

* Short paper
* Work in progress
* Experimental or implementation summary
* Announcements of results published elsewhere
* Announcements of tools/libraries
* Challenge / open problems
* Correction of previous results
* Other

As you can see, this encompasses a wide variety of possible things you
might want to announce. Perhaps you had a paper recently accepted to
STOC? Perhaps you have the kernel of an interesting idea with some
preliminary results that you would like to get feedback on? Perhaps you
have a proof-of-concept system you'd like to discuss (before building a
full-fledged implementation)? Perhaps you would like to outline a grand
challenge to the SPAA community?

This is an especially good opportunity for a student to come to SPAA,
meet the members of the SPAA community, talk about their work and their
ideas, etc.


======================================================
SPAA 2016 Call for Papers
======================================================

28th ACM Symposium on
Parallelism in Algorithms and Architectures (SPAA 2016)
July 11-13, 2016
Asilomar State Beach, California, USA
http://spaa.acm.org

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

Important Dates:

Submission deadlines:
- Regular papers: February 5, 11:59pm HAST
- Brief announcements: February 26, 11:59pm HAST

Rebuttal period: March 22-25
Notification: April 11

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

Submissions are sought in all areas of parallel algorithms and
architectures, broadly construed, including both theoretical and
experimental perspectives. Topics of interest include, but are not
limited to:

- Parallel and Distributed Algorithms
- Parallel and Distributed Data Structures
- Parallel Complexity Theory
- Scheduling in Parallel Systems
- Specification and Verification of Concurrent Systems
- Parallel and Distributed Architectures
- Multiprocessor and Multicore Architectures

- Parallel/Distributed issues in Big Data
- Resource Management and Awareness

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.

The Highlights of Algorithms conference is designed to be a forum for
presenting the highlights of recent developments in algorithms and for
discussing potential further advances in this area. The conference will
provide a broad picture of the latest research in algorithms through a
series of survey and invited talks, as well as possibility for all
researchers and students to present their recent results through a
series of short talks and poster presentations. Attending the Highlights
of Algorithms conference will also be an opportunity for networking and
meeting leading researchers in algorithms.

Important Dates:

Abstract submission: February 23, 2016 (anywhere on Earth)
Full paper submission: February 29, 2016 (anywhere on Earth)
Author Notification: April 7, 2016
Final Manuscript Due: April 22, 2016
Conference: July 18-20, 2016

Submissions:

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.
