SecCo 2010 Paris, France Monday, August 30th, 2010 http://www.win.tue.nl/~kostas/SecCo2010/ Affiliated with Concur 2010 IMPORTANT DATES =============== Papers due: June 1st, 2010 Notification: July 9th, 2010 Final paper due: July 23rd, 2010 Workshop: August 30th, 2010 BACKGROUND, AIM AND SCOPE ========================= Emerging trends in concurrency theory require the definition of models and languages adequate for the design and management of new classes of applications, mainly to program either WANs (like Internet) or smaller networks of mobile and portable devices (which support applications based on a dynamically reconfigurable communication structure). Due to the openness of these systems, new critical aspects come into […]

The aim of this eleventh edition of the conference series on Web Information Systems Engineering is to provide an international forum for researchers, professionals, and industrial practitioners to share their knowledge in the rapidly growing area of Web technologies, methodologies and applications. Previous WISE conferences were held in Hong Kong, China (2000), Kyoto, Japan (2001), Singapore (2002), Roma, Italy (2003), Brisbane, Australia (2004), New York, USA (2005), Wuhan, China (2006), Nancy, France (2007), Auckland, New Zealand (2008), and Poznan, Poland (2009).

WSDM (pronounced “wisdom”) is the premier international ACM conference covering research in the areas of search and data mining on the Web. The 4th ACM WSDM Conference will take place in Hong Kong, during February 9-12, 2011.WSDM publishes original, high quality papers and presentations related to search and data mining on the Web and the Social Web, with an emphasis on practical but principled novel models of search, retrieval and data mining, algorithm design and analysis, economics implications, and in-depth experimental analysis of accuracy and performance. WSDM2011 will have keynotes, invited talks, full paper presentations, posters, tutorials, workshops, social events, […]

La vente de liens c’est un peu la grosse affaire, grosse affaire pour celui qui vend les liens, grosse affaire pour le casinotier webmaster qui en achète, mais surtout grosse affaire pour notre ami le grand Google pour qui la vente de liens est une incarnation directe et tangible du grand diable qui sommeille tapie au sein de chacun d’entre nous. Pendant longtemps le sujet n’avait jamais été abordé par qui que ce soit et le business de la vente se passait tranquillement, à la vue de qui voulait voir, mais sans publicité excessive. Mais en 2006, Google a décidé […]

The 21st International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2010) will be held in Jeju Island, Korea, December 15-17, 2010.

Papers presenting original research in the areas of algorithms and theory of computation are sought. Papers in relevant applied areas are also welcome. Topics The topics include, but are not limited to: – Algorithms and data structures – Approximation algorithms – Combinatorial optimization – Computational biology – Computational complexity – Computational geometry – Cryptography – Experimental algorithms – Graph drawing and graph algorithms […]

I am pleased to announce that the following paper is accepted as a brief announcement at SPAA 2010: Brief announcement: Lower bounds on communication for sparse Cholesky factorization of a model problem. Laura Grigori, Pierre-Yves David, James Demmel and Sylvain Peyronnet. In the paper we derive bounds on communication for sparse Cholesky factorization $latex A = LL^T$ . We focus our analysis on matrices whose graphs satisfy a property, from which a lower bound on the number of flops of the Cholesky factorization can be derived. More information? read the paper!
