The papers contained in this volume were presented at the fourth edition of the IFIP International Conference on Theoretical Computer Science (IFIP TCS), held August 23-24, 2006 in Santiago, Chile. They were selected from 44 pa pers submitted from 17 countries in response to the call for papers. A total of 16 submissions were accepted as full papers, yielding an acceptance rate of about 36%. Papers sohcited for IFIP TCS 2006 were meant to constitute orig inal contributions in two general areas: Algorithms, Complexity and Models of Computation; and Logic, Semantics, Specification and Verification. The conference also included six invited presentations: Marcelo Arenas (P- tificia Universidad Catolica de Chile, Chile), Jozef Gruska (Masaryk University, Czech Republic), Claudio Gutierrez (Universidad de Chile, Chile), Marcos Kiwi (Universidad de Chile, Chile), Nicola Santoro (Carleton University, Canada), and Mihalis Yannakakis (Columbia University, USA). The abstracts of those presentations are included in this volume. In addition, Jozef Gruska and Nicola Santoro accepted our invitation to write full papers related to their talks. Those two surveys are included in the present volume as well. TCS is a biannual conference. The first edition was held in Sendai (Japan, 2000), followed by Montreal (Canada, 2002) and Toulouse (France, 2004)."
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 25th International Symposium on String Processing and Information Retrieval, SPIRE 2018, held in Lima, Peru, in October 2018. The 22 full papers and 6 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 51 submissions. They focus on fundamental studies on string processing and information retrieval, as well as on computational biology.
Compact data structures help represent data in reduced space while allowing it to be queried, navigated, and operated in compressed form. They are essential tools for efficiently handling massive amounts of data by exploiting the memory hierarchy. They also reduce the resources needed in distributed deployments and make better use of the limited memory in low-end devices. The field has developed rapidly, reaching a level of maturity that allows practitioners and researchers in application areas to benefit from the use of compact data structures. This first comprehensive book on the topic focuses on the structures that are most relevant for practical use. Readers will learn how the structures work, how to choose the right ones for their application scenario, and how to implement them. Researchers and students in the area will find in the book a definitive guide to the state of the art in compact data structures.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th Latin American Symposium on Theoretical Informatics, LATIN 2016, held in Ensenada, Mexico, in April 2016. The 52 papers presented together with 5 abstracts were carefully reviewed and selected from 131 submissions. The papers address a variety of topics in theoretical computer science with a certain focus on algorithms (approximation, online, randomized, algorithmic game theory, etc.), analytic combinatorics and analysis of algorithms, automata theory and formal languages, coding theory and data compression, combinatorial algorithms, combinatorial optimization, combinatorics and graph theory, complexity theory, computational algebra, computational biology, computational geometry, computational number theory, cryptology, databases and information retrieval, data structures, formal methods and security, Internet and the web, parallel and distributed computing, pattern matching, programming language theory, and random structures.
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Similarity Search and Applications, SISAP 2012, held in Toronto, Canada, in August 2012. The 14 full papers presented in this volume, together with 2 demo papers and 2 invited talks, were carefully reviewed and selected from 19 submissions. The papers deal with many of the most relevant aspects of similarity searching and are organized in topical sections named: new scenarios and approaches; improving metric data structures; facing scalability issues; searching in specific spaces; and new similarity spaces.
String matching problems range from the relatively simple task of searching a single text for a string of characters to searching a database for approximate occurrences of a complex pattern. Recent years have witnessed a dramatic increase of interest in sophisticated string matching problems, especially in information retrieval and computational biology. This book presents a practical approach to string matching problems, focusing on the algorithms and implementations that perform best in practice. It covers searching for simple, multiple and extended strings, as well as regular expressions, and exact and approximate searching. It includes all the most significant new developments in complex pattern searching. The clear explanations, step-by-step examples, algorithm pseudocode, and implementation efficiency maps will enable researchers, professionals and students in bioinformatics, computer science, and software engineering to choose the most appropriate algorithms for their applications.
The papers contained in this volume were presented at the 12th edition of the International Symposium on String Processing and Information Retrieval (SPIRE), held November 2-4, 2005, in Buenos Aires, Argentina. They were - lected from 102 papers submitted from 25 countries in response to the Call for Papers.Atotalof27submissionswereacceptedasfullpapers,yieldinganacc- tancerateofabout26%.Inviewofthelargenumberofgood-qualitysubmissions the conference program also included 17 short papers that also appear in the proceedings.In addition, the Steering Committee invited the following speakers: Prabhakar Raghavan (Yahoo! Research, USA), Paolo Ferragina (University of Pisa, Italy), and Gonzalo Navarro (University of Chile, Chile). Papers solicited for SPIRE 2005 were meant to constitute original cont- butions to areas such as string processing (dictionary algorithms, text sear- ing, pattern matching, text compression, text mining, natural language p- cessing, and automata-basedstring processing); information retrieval languages, applications, and evaluation (IR modeling, indexing, ranking and ?ltering, - terface design, visualization, cross-lingual IR systems, multimedia IR, digital libraries,collaborativeretrieval,Web-relatedapplications,XML, information- trievalfromsemi-structureddata,textmining,andgenerationofstructureddata from text); and interaction of biology and computation (sequencing and app- cations in molecular biology, evolution and phylogenetics, recognition of genes and regulatory elements, and sequence-driven protein structure prediction).
