Track Chair

Contents

The track is devoted to the recognized core areas forming the heart of computer science, and covering many different fields. Contributions are typically distinguished by an emphasis on mathematical background techniques, but quite often with significant impact on practical applications and systems. In other words, contributions that illustrate the value of fundamental research for applications are especially welcome. Such contributions have traditionally received a lot of attention at SOFSEM conferences, since its birth in 1974.

The list of topics includes (but is not limited to):

  • algorithms and data structures, including sequential, parallel, distributed, approximation, and number-theoretic algorithms
  • automata theory and languages
  • complexity theory, both computational and structural
  • foundations of security
  • concurrency theory
  • quantitative aspects of computing
  • discrete mathematics related to computer science
  • grammars and formal models
  • program semantics, logic, and verification
