[ Found on theory bb - steve ] ************************************************************ ALGORITHMICA An International Journal in Computer Science CALL FOR PAPERS Special Issue on PARALLEL ALGORITHMS FOR GEOMETRIC PROBLEMS ON DIGITIZED PICTURES ALGORITHMICA, an International Journal in Computer Science, published by Springer Verlag, is planning a special issue entitled "Parallel Algorithms for Geometric Problems on Digitized Pictures". Algorithmica is a journal dedicated to bringing together the theoretical results and the practical applications necessary for designing efficient algorithms. It covers algorithms in applied areas such as * VLSI * distributed computing * parallel processing * automated design * robotics * graphics * database design * software tools. And it covers fundamental applicationas like * sorting * searching * data structures * computational geometry * linear programming. For this special issue, papers are invited which are concerned with the design and analysis of efficient parallel algorithms for solving geometric problems (e.g., problems in computational geometry, graphics, or robotics). Those problems are of particular interest that arise when geometric data are given in the form of digitized pictures. Authors are invited to submit manuscripts in triplicate to the Guest Editor Frank Dehne Center for Parallel and Distributed Computing School of Computer Science Carleton University Ottawa, Canada K1S 5B6 (613) 564-2700, bitnet: DEHNE@CARLETON, fax: (613) 564-7134. Submissions must be received by November 21, 1988, and should include a mailing address (stand. mail), telephone number, and electronic mail address for all further correspondence. A letter of intent, together with a tentative title, received before the end of August would be appreciated. ************************************************************
