Approximation Algorithms | Combinatorial Algorithms | Combinatorial Optimization | Computational Complexity | Computational Geometry | Data Structures | Graph Algorithms | Graph Drawing | Parallel and Distributed Algorithms | Parameterized Complexity | Network Optimization | Online Algorithms | Randomized Algorithms | Combinatorics | Graph Theory | Discrete Geometry


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 Submitted papers must describe previously unpublished work and may not be submitted concurrently to another conference with refereed proceedings or to a refereed journal.


NOTE: Authors of accepted papers are encouraged to visit Puducherry and present.
