CALDAM 2018

CALL FOR PAPERS CALDAM 2018 invites papers describing original research in the areas of design, analysis and experimental evaluation of algorithms and in discrete applied mathematics. Papers must be typeset using LaTeX/LaTeX2e and may not exceed 12 pages in LNCS style, including bibliographic references. Further details may be included in a clearly marked appendix that will be read at the discretion of the program committee. Only electronic submission is allowed. Submitted papers must describe previously unpublished work and may not be submitted concurrently to another conference with refereed proceedings or to a refereed journal. There will be Best Paper Awards of Springer for outstanding research papers.
