Ebook: Combinatorics, Algorithms, Probabilistic and Experimental Methodologies: First International Symposium, ESCAPE 2007, Hangzhou, China, April 7-9, 2007, Revised Selected Papers

The First International Symposium on Combinatorics, Algorithms, Probabilistic and Experimental Methodologies was held in Hangzhou, China, in April 2007. The symposium provided an interdisciplinary forum for researchers to share their discoveries and approaches; search for ideas, methodologies, and tool boxes; find better, faster, and more accurate solutions; and develop a research agenda of common interest. This volume constitutes the refereed post-proceedings of the symposium.

Inside you’ll find 46 full papers. All the contributions were carefully reviewed to ensure that each one meets the highest standards of research and scholarship. Collectively, they represent some of the most important thinking and advancements in the field.

The papers address large data processing problems using different methodologies from major disciplines such as computer science, combinatorics, and statistics.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the First International Symposium On Combinatorics, Algorithms, Probabilistic and Experimental Methodologies, ESCAPE 2007, held in Hangzhou, China in April 2007.

The 46 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 362 submissions. The papers address practical large data processing problems with different, and eventually converging, methodologies from major important disciplines such as computer science, combinatorics, and statistics. The symposium provides an interdisciplinary forum for researchers across their discipline boundaries to exchange their approaches, to search for ideas, methodologies, and tool boxes, to find better, faster and more accurate solutions thus fostering innovative ideas as well as to develop research agenda of common interest.
