INSTRUCTIONS FOR AUTHORS
========================

Authors are invited to submit papers (extended abstracts) describing original research
of theoretical or practical significance to algorithms and computation. Papers should
not exceed 12 pages in LNCS style. Papers significantly shorter than 12 pages are also
welcome. If the authors feel that more details are essential to substantiate the main
claim of the paper, they may include a clearly marked appendix that will be read at
the discretion of the Program Committee.
Only electronic submissions via EasyChair will be allowed (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=walcom2022).

Papers submitted for review should represent original, previously unpublished work or
surveys of important results. At the time the paper is submitted to WALCOM 2022, and
for the entire review period, the paper (or essentially the same paper) should not be
under review by any other conference with published proceedings or by a scientific journal.
At least one author of each accepted paper will be expected to register at the conference and
present the paper.

AWARDS
=======

Two awards, namely, "The Best Paper" and "The Best Student Paper" will be awarded.
A paper is eligible for the Best Student Paper if the paper is presented by an author, who is a full-time student.
The best paper awards will be sponsored by Springer.

PROCEEDINGS AND JOURNAL SPECIAL ISSUES
=====================================

Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings. Following the tradition of
the previous editions of WALCOM the proceedings will be included in the Springer-Verlag series,
Lecture Notes in Computer Science.
Authors of selected papers will be invited to submit extended versions of their papers to
Journal special issues in Algorithmica,  Theoretical Computer Science (TCS) and Journal of Graph Algorithms
and Applications (JGAA).
