eminario Interdipartimentale di Algoritmica
Interdepartmental Seminar on Algorithmics


This is a joint cycle of seminars of the Department of Computer and System Sciences (DIS) and of the Department of Computer Science (DI) of the University of Rome "La Sapienza". The seminars are devoted to the study of algorithms in a general sense. In addition to the classical theoretical and experimental aspects of algorithmics, a broad spectrum of topics is considered, including computational complexity, engineering and applications, operations research, and discrete mathematics. The seminars are open to every discipline in which algorithmics finds an application.

Being a joint event, the seminars take place either at DIS, or at DI, usually on monday at 12:00 noon.

For information about the seminar, please contact Camil Demetrescu or Alessandro Mei.
