The International Workshop on Parameterized and Exact Computation covers research in all aspects of parameterized and exact computation and complexity, including but not limited to: new techniques for the design and analysis of parameterized and exact algorithms, parameterized complexity theory, relationship between parameterized complexity and traditional complexity classifications, applications of parameterized computation, implementation issues of parameterized algorithms, high-performance computing and fixed-parameter tractability. The goal is to present recent research results, including significant work-in-progress, and to identify and explore directions for future research.
IWPEC 2006 will be part of ALGO 2006, which also hosts ESA, WAOA, WABI, and ATMOS. ALGO 2006 will take place September 11 - 15, 2006 in Zürich, Switzerland. The proceedings of IWPEC 2006 are published in the Springer series Lecture Notes in Computer Science.
Authors are invited to submit an extended abstract in English no longer than 12 pages using at least 11-point font, preferably in LNCS-style, describing original unpublished research. Simultaneous submission to other conferences with published proceedings is not permitted. Additional details as necessary may be included in a clearly marked appendix that will be read at the discretion of the program committee.
Authors must submit their papers electronically at http://borbala.cs.uu.nl/iwpecpapers/submit/. Authors unable to submit electronically should contact either of the Program Co-Chairs. Accepted papers are expected to be presented at the workshop.
Paper submission deadline: April 24, 2006; (23.59 GMT)
Notification of acceptance: May 26, 2006
