ESA 2021: European Symposium on Algorithms
September 6-8, 2021
Lisbon, Portugal

The symposium seeks original algorithmic contributions for problems with relevant theoretical and/or practical applications. Papers with a strong emphasis on the theoretical analysis of algorithms should be submitted to Track A, while papers reporting on the results of extensive experimental evaluations and/or providing original contributions to the engineering of algorithms for practical applications should be submitted to Track B. There will be a Best Student Paper Award as well as a Best Paper Award, both sponsored by EATCS.

Papers should be submitted electronically via the EasyChair submission system. The ESA 2021 proceedings will be published in the Leibniz International Proceedings in Informatics (LIPIcs) series.

The conference will employ a lightweight double-blind reviewing process.
