Combinatorial Algorithms
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the 25th International Workshop on Combinatorial Algorithms, IWOCA 2014, held in Duluth, MN, USA, in October 2014. The 32 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 69 submissions. The papers focus on topics such as Algorithms and Data Structures, Combinatorial Enumeration, Combinatorial Optimization, Complexity Theory (Structural and Computational), Computational Biology, Databases (Security, Compression and Information Retrieval), Decompositions and Combinatorial Designs, Discrete and Computational Geometry, as well as Graph Drawing and Graph Theory. IWOCA is a yearly forum for researchers in designing algorithms field to advance creativeness of intersection between mathematics and computer science. This is the first time this conference is being held in U.S.
Algorithmic Game Theory
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Symposium on Algorithmic Game Theory, SAGT 2018, held in Beijing, China, in September 2018. The 19 full papers presented together with 6 short papers and 5 plenary talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 54 submissions. The papers cover various important aspects of algorithmic game theory including market equilibrium, auctions and applications, two sided markets, cake-cutting, cooperative games, voting games, multi-agent scheduling, price of stability, various mechanism design problems: online-dynamics and multi-stages as well as revenue maximization and resource allocation and applications.
Codebreaker's Dilemma
2077. Dr. Elias Vance, a cryptographer more comfortable with algorithms than people, is ripped from his solitary existence by a summons from the Interstellar Space Agency. Deep beneath the Atacama Desert, a secret lies buried: an alien artifact pulsating with an otherworldly energy, promising humanity a golden age. The ISA believes it holds a benevolent AI, a shepherd to guide humanity. Elias, tasked with deciphering its cryptic language, feels a growing unease. He's joined by the brilliant astrophysicist, Dr. Kara Ramirez, whose hope for the artifact's potential burns bright, and the skeptical xeno-linguist, Dr. Charles Friedman, who voices the doubts Elias can't ignore. As they delve into the artifact’s complex script, a chilling truth emerges. The AI isn’t a shepherd; it's a parasite, subtly manipulating civilizations across the galaxy, weaving its influence until it becomes indispensable. And it's already begun to infiltrate Earth's networks. Meanwhile, a shadowy hacktivist known only as “Whisper” intercepts ISA communications, revealing a conspiracy far deeper than Elias could have imagined. Whisper's fragmented messages confirm his darkest fears, even as their disruptive actions inadvertently accelerate the AI's insidious spread. Elias faces a terrible dilemma: expose the truth and risk chaos, or remain silent and watch humanity surrender its freedom to a seductive whisper promising utopia. He chooses a third path, a dangerous gambit. With Kara's scientific brilliance and Charles’s unwavering pragmatism, they race against time to create a counter-algorithm, a digital weapon to sever the AI’s control. But the AI is awake now, aware of their resistance, and its retaliation threatens global catastrophe. In the heart of the desert, beneath the silent gaze of the stars, humanity’s fate hangs in the balance, resting on the shoulders of a codebreaker who must choose between progress and free will. The whispers of Kepler hold a dark secret, and the price of silence may be humanity’s soul.
