Welcome to FAW 2010!
What's new! Accommodation information added!
Frontiers of Algorithmics Workshop The 4th International Frontiers of Algorithmics Workshop (FAW 2010) will be held on August 11-13, 2010, at Wuhan University, Wuhan, China.
The Workshop will provide a focused forum on current trends of research on algorithms, discrete structures, and their applications, and will bring together international experts at the research frontiers in these areas to exchange ideas and to present significant new results.
The mission of the Workshop is to stimulate the various fields for which algorithmics can become a crucial enabler, and to strengthen the ties between the Eastern and Western research communities of algorithmics and applications.
One of the most famous tourist attractions in Hubei Province, whose capital city is Wuhan, is the Three Gorges. The Three Gorges on the Yangtze River are famous for their breathtaking scenery, and are praised as the nature's art gallery and wonderland. Of the three Gorges, the Qutang Gorge is magnificent and precipitous, the Wuxia Gorge is deep and beautiful, and the Xiling Gorge is full of rapids and many rock formations. The water in the Mini Three Gorges is clean and both of its banks are blanketed with trees and have many historical sites, scenic spots, and lovely legends. Today, a huge dam is being built along the Three Gorges. After completion, it will offer visitors a new look amidst the precipitous gorges.

Program Topics
Interesting new results in all areas of algorithmics and their applications are welcome. In addition to theoretical work, we are also interested in results that report on experimental and applied research of general algorithmic interest. 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
- 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
- Optimization algorithms in economic and operations research
- Parallel and distributed computing and multicore algorithms
- Parameterized algorithms, heuristics, and analysis
- Pattern recognition algorithms
- Trustworthy algorithms and trustworthy software
After-workshop Tour
