Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We invite you to submit your latest research in the area of graph partitioning to this Special Issue, Graph Partitioning: Theory, Engineering, and Applications. All facets of graph partitioning will be considered, including shared-memory parallel and distributed algorithms, streaming algorithms, exact algorithms, approximation algorithms, local search, genetic algorithms, metaheuristics, hardness results, parameterized algorithms, variations in objective functions, and alternate partitioning primitives (such as edge partitioning) or process mapping algorithms. High-quality papers are solicited to address both the theoretical and practical issues of graph partitioning. Submissions on graph partitioning’s impact on existing applications, and the introduction of new applications with experiments are highly encouraged.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Algorithms is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
