SCOPE
The Workshop on Algorithm Engineering and Experiments
(ALENEX10) will be held on January 16, 2010, at the Hyatt
Regency Austin, Austin, Texas.
The aim of the ALENEX workshop is to provide a forum for
presentation of original research in the implementation and
experimental evaluation of algorithms and data structures.
We invite submissions that present significant case studies
in experimental analysis (such studies may tighten, extend,
or otherwise improve current theoretical results) or in the
implementation, testing, and evaluation of algorithms for
realistic environments and scenarios, including specific
applied areas (for example, databases, networks, operations
research, computational biology and physics, computational
geometry, and the world wide web) that present unique
challenges in their underlying algorithmic problems. We
also invite submissions that address methodological issues
and standards in the context of empirical research on
algorithms and data structures. The scientific program will
include time for discussion and debate of topics in this
rapidly evolving research area.
This workshop precedes the ACM-SIAM Symposium on Discrete
Algorithms (SODA10), being held January 17-19, 2010. The
workshop will take place on the same day as the Workshop on
Analytic Algorithmics and Combinatorics (ANALCO10).
Registrants from either workshop will be cross-registered
with the other. Proceedings of ALENEX and ANALCO will be
published openly and electronically in January 2010.
