Randomized Algorithms and Data Structures

This special issue belongs to the section “Randomized, Online, and Approximation Algorithms“.

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Randomization has proven to be a powerful tool for algorithms, data structures, and analysis. Nowadays, problems in essentially all areas of theoretical computer science are being tackled with probabilistic techniques.

We invite you to submit high-quality research papers to this Special Issue on “Randomized Algorithms and Data Structures”. Topics of interest cover the full range of applications of probability theory and randomness to theoretical computer science. These include, but are not limited to:

  • Design and analysis of randomized algorithms and data structures
  • Randomized complexity theory
  • Randomized distributed algorithms
  • Average-case and smoothed analysis
  • Random processes
  • Random combinatorial structures

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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 1800 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.
