23rd Intern. Meeting on Probabilistic, Combinatorial, and Asymptotic Methods for the Analysis of Algorithms (AofA'12)

The present volume collects the proceedings of the Aofa'12, 23st International Meeting on Probabilistic, Combinatorial, and Asymptotic Methods for the Analysis of Algorithms held at the Centre de Recherches Mathématiques at Université de Montreal, Canada, between June 18-22, 2012. The conference builds on the communities of the former series of conferences ``Mathematics and Computer Science'' and ``Analysis of Algorithms'', and aims at studying rigorously the combinatorial objects which appear in particular as data structures, algorithms, models of networks and as well as the essential ubiquitous combinatorial structures. The program committee selected submissions covering this wide range of topics. The regular papers were presented in 30-minute talks, and short abstracts in presentations of 15 minutes. They all appear in the present volume.

The conference included five invited plenary lectures:

  • Michael Drmota (TU Vienna, Austria): Extremal parameters in critical and subcritical graph classes
  • Svante Janson (Uppsala, Sweden): Simply generated trees, conditioned Galton-Watson trees, random allocations and condensation
  • Amin Coja-Oghlan (Warwick, UK): Phase transitions and computational complexity
  • Claire Mathieu (Brown, USA): Algorithms for optimization over noisy data
  • Avi Wigderson (IAS, USA): Population Recovery via Partial Identification

We thank the members of the steering and program committees for their involvement. We also thank the invited speakers, and the authors of the contributed papers. We express our gratitute to the people at CRM and especially Louis Pelletier for their invaluable help in making sure that the meeting went smoothly. We are also grateful to the editor-in-chief of DMTCS Jens Gustedt for his help in the compilation of the proceedings.

Finally, our special thanks go to the sponsors of the conference for their contributions: CRM, Inria, and NSERC.

Automata 2011 - 17th International Workshop on Cellular Automata and Discrete Complex Systems

This volume contains all the full papers presented at AUTOMATA 2011, the 17th international workshop on cellular automata and discrete complex systems. The workshop was held on November 21-23, 2011, at the Center for Mathematical Modeling, University of Chile, Santiago, Chile.

AUTOMATA is an annual workshop on the fundamental aspects of cellular automata and related discrete dynamical systems. The spirit of the workshop is to foster collaborations and exchanges between researchers on these areas. The workshop series was started in 1995 by members of the Working Group 1.5 of IFIP, the International Federation for Information Processing.

The volume contains the « full » papers selected by the program committee, which consisted of 27 international experts on cellular automata and related models, and the selection was based on 3 peer reviews on each paper.

Papers in this volume represent a rich sample of current research topics on cellular automata and related models. The papers include theoretical studies of the classical cellular automata model, but also many investigations into various variants and generalizations of the basic concept. The versatile nature and the flexibility of the model is evident from the presented papers, making it a rich source of new research problems for scientists representing a variety of disciplines.

As the editors of these proceedings, we thank all contributors to the scientific program of the workshop. We are especially indebted to the invited speakers and the authors of the contributed papers.

Automata 2010 - 16th Intl. Workshop on CA and DCS

This volume contains the selected "full" papers presented at AUTOMATA 2010, the 16th inter- national workshop on cellular automata and discrete complex systems. The workshop was held on June 14-16, 2010, at the LORIA laboratory in Nancy, France. AUTOMATA is an annual workshop on the fundamental aspects of cellular automata and related discrete dynamical sys- tems. The spirit of the workshop is to foster collaborations and exchanges between researchers on these areas. The workshop series was started in 1995 by members of the Working Group 1.5 of IFIP, the International Federation for Information Processing. The program committee consisted of 25 international experts on cellular automata and related models, and the selection was based on 2-4 peer reviews on each paper. Papers in this volume represent a rich sample of current research topics on cellular automata and related models. The papers include theoretical studies of the classical cellular automata model, but also many investigations into various variants and generalizations of the basic concept. The versatile nature and the flexibility of the model is evident from the presented papers, making it a rich source of new research problems for scientists representing a variety of disciplines.

As the editors of these proceedings, we thank all contributors to the scientific program of the workshop. We are especially indebted to the invited speakers and the authors of the contributed papers. We would also like to thank the members of the Program Committee and the external reviewers of the papers.

21st International Meeting on Probabilistic, Combinatorial, and Asymptotic Methods in the Analysis of Algorithms (AofA'10)

This Proceedings volume is devoted to the Aofa'10, 21st International Meeting on Probabilistic, Combinatorial, and Asymptotic Methods for the Analysis of Algorithms, which was held at the Vienna University of Technology, Austria, during June 28 - July 2, 2010. This conference is the first joint meeting of two previous conference and seminar series on ``Mathematics and Computer Science'' and ``Analysis of Algorithms''. The common aim of these and the present meeting is to study discrete objects that appear as data structures or algorithms (including graphs, networks etc.) by mathematical methods, in particular by probabilistic, combinatorial and asymptotic methods. However, the topics of the conference are meant in a broad sense and so the programme committee selected 41 papers covering a wide range of fields. The 41 papers were presented in 30 minutes talks and all of them appear in this DMTCS Proceedings volume.

The programme of the conference was complemented by the following five 60 minutes invited lectures:

Noga Alon (Tel Aviv University, Israel)Color Coding: Variations and Applications
Yuliy Baryshnikov (Bell Laboratories, USA)Search on the Brink of Chaos
Daniel Panario (Carleton University, Canada)Polynomials over Finite Fields: Algorithms and Randomness
Oliver Riordan (University of Oxford, England)Percolation on Graphs
Peter Winkler (Dartmouth, USA)The Automaton as Statistician

Before the conference a Mini-Summerschool with lectures by Nicolas Broutin (INRIA Rocquencourt), Christian Krattenthaler (Univ. Wien), Angelika Steger (ETH Züurich), and Wojciech Szpankowski (Purdue Univ.) took place during June 25-26, 2010.

Furthermore a poster session was organized with posters presented by Zareen Alamgir, Saira Karim, and Syed Husnine; Milan Bradonjic, Aric Hagberg, Nick Hengartner and Allon G. Percus; Boris Granovsky; Immanuel Halupczok and Jan-Christoph Schlage-Puchta; Madhu Jain and G.C. Sharma; Daniel Krenn; Manfred Madritsch; Dimbinaina Ralaivaosaona; Alexey Ustinov; Martin Zeiner.

We express our gratitude to the members of the Programme Committee for their careful selection of the 41 contributed papers. This eventually guaranteed the high quality and the wide range of topics of the conference. We thank the members Steering Committee and the members of the Organisation Committee for the organizational work. Furthermore, we thank all the invited speakers, the authors of papers or posters, and all the participants of the conference. We are also grateful to the editor-in-chief of DMTCS Jens Gustedt and to Cyril Banderier for technical assistance during the compilation of the proceedings.

Last but not least we express our special thanks to the Austrian Science Foundation FWF, the City of Vienna as well as the Vienna University of Technology for the financial support of the conference.
