RANDOM-APPROX 2024 will include a session in memory of Luca Trevisan consisting of a few short talks highlighting Luca’s contributions to pseudorandomness and hardness of approximation, organized by Dieter van Melkebeek. The speakers will be Anupam Gupta (on unique games), Jelani Nelson (on approximation algorithms), Rocco Servedio (on pseudorandomness) and Dieter van Melkebeek ( on randomness extraction).
January 13-14, 2025

Short Abstract Submission and Paper Registration: August 5, 11:59pm Anywhere on Earth. Submissions received after this time will not be considered. Full Paper Submission: August 8, 11:59 p.m. Anywhere on Earth. Papers in all areas of algorithms research are sought. An ideal submission will advance our understanding of an algorithmic problem by, for example, introducing a simpler algorithm, presenting a simpler analysis of an existing algorithm, or offering insights that generally simplify our understanding of important algorithms or computational problems. We are especially interested in papers that make material more accessible to a wider audience, such as undergraduates, or for more specialized topics, general algorithms researchers. Submissions should contain novel ideas or attractive insights, but they are not required to prove novel theorems. That is, the results themselves can be known, but their presentation must be new.
October 7-9, 2024
Simons Institute for the Theory of Computing, Berkeley, CA, USA https://simons.berkeley.edu/homepage
There will be a workshop at the Simons Institute in Berkeley in celebration of the life and scientific contributions of the late Luca Trevisan (1971-2024). The workshop will be open to all who would like to attend, subject to capacity constraints. Stay tuned for registration information when it is available.
July 25 – August 31, 2024
Chicago, IL
https://focs.computer.org/2024/call-for-workshops/
Submission deadline: August 22, 2024
We invite proposals for five hour workshops to be held on the first day of FOCS 2024 (Oct 27 2024) to be held in Chicago. The proposal are supposed to be short (two pages max) and describe a plan for talks on a timely topic. See https://focs.computer.org/2024/call-for-workshops/ for details.
August 19-21, 2024
Toyota Technological Institute at Chicago (TTIC)
https://samsonzhou.github.io/ttic-2024-workshop-learning-augmented.html
Submission deadline: August 12, 2024
Registration deadline: August 15, 2024
The workshop will focus on both the fundamental aspects of designing learning-augmented algorithms (also known as algorithms with predictions), as well as its applications in areas such as approximation algorithms, data structure, graph algorithms, randomized numerical linear algebra, online algorithms, streaming and sketching algorithms, and supervised and unsupervised learning. The invited participants span a diverse set of research areas from both academia and industry, including theoretical computer science, machine learning, and operations research.
*Call for Poster and Lightning Talk presentation*: We will be holding sessions for poster and lightning talks. If you are interested in presenting a poster or giving a lightning talk, please indicate your interest and preference in the registration form. While we aim to accommodate all submissions, we may have to limit the number of presentations due to time and space constraints.
September 23-24, 2024
University of Warwick (UK)

Registration deadline: September 8, 2024
We’re excited to announce a workshop on Algorithms & Complexity at the University of Warwick on September 23-24. The aim of the event is to highlight several recent exciting advances in the field of Algorithms and Complexity and to facilitate interactions within the research community in the UK. We hope to see many of you there!
December 3-6, 2024
Sydney, Australia
https://sites.google.com/view/sydney-tcs-summerschool2024/home
Registration deadline: September 2, 2024
The week before ISAAC’24, on Dec 3-6 , Australian researchers are organizing a 4-day Summer (south hemisphere) School on “Recent Trends in Algorithms” in Sydney, with one day dedicated to each of Algorithmic Fairness, Quantum Computing, Data Structures, and Privacy. Participation to the summer school is free (though registration is mandatory: register by November 5).
Thanks to the ACM SIGACT, Google Research, and the School of CS at U Sydney, we have some travel funding to cover accommodation for a number undergrad and grad students (apply by September 2).
July 17-19, 2024
University of Waterloo, Waterloo, CANADA
https://www.math.uwaterloo.ca/~fulkerson100/
Submission deadline: June 21, 2024
We welcome you to join us for a 3-day research workshop, Fulkerson 100 (https://www.math.uwaterloo.ca/~fulkerson100/), hosted by the Dept. of Combinatorics & Optimization (C&O) at the University of Waterloo from July 17-19, 2024, in honor of Ray Fulkerson’s centenary year of birth. Fulkerson was one of the leading figures in combinatorial optimization, and his seminal work has had a profound and lasting impact in shaping the fields of combinatorial optimization and Operations Research. (This is the Wed-Fri of the week right before ISMP 2024 in Montreal.)
The workshop will feature invited talks (https://www.math.uwaterloo.ca/~fulkerson100/invited.html) by distinguished researchers in the areas of graph theory, combinatorics, optimization, and theoretical computer science (TCS). It will also feature lightning talks and a poster session to showcase research by students and postdocs. We hope to bring together a wide variety of researchers in discrete mathematics, while (implicitly) commemorating Fulkerson’s vision and contributions.
The link for registration is here: https://www.math.uwaterloo.ca/~fulkerson100/registration.html.
As part of registration, students and postdocs can indicate whether they would like to present a lightning talk and poster at the event. (There is some limited funding to help support the participation of students and postdocs who are in need.)
