Many discrete optimization problems can be modelled as graph problems, leading to a long list of well-studied problems, which include graph partitioning, covering and packing problems, network design problems, width parameter problems, and so on. Most of these graph problems are computationally hard. However, this situation may change if we require the input to belong to some special graph class. This leads to two fundamental questions, which lie at the heart of our Dagstuhl Seminar: for which classes of graphs can a computationally hard graph problem be solved in polynomial time, and for which classes of graphs does the problem remain hard? In our seminar, we aim to discover new insights that lead to results for a whole range of problems rather than just for a single problem alone.

Trier University, Computer Science Department

WG conferences aim to connect theory and applications by demonstrating how graph-theoretic concepts can be applied in various areas of computer science. This conference series has a long tradition and bridges discrete mathematics and computer science. WG is mainly concerned with efficient algorithms of various types (e.g., sequential, parallel, distributed, randomized, parameterized) for problems on graphs and networks. The goal is to present recent results and to identify and explore directions for future research.

PC Chairs;     Phone: [(not so relevant)];     Email: fernau@uni-trier.de; kindermann@uni-trier.de

design and analysis of sequential, parallel, randomized, parameterized algorithms, distributed graph and network algorithms, structural graph theory with algorithmic or complexity applications, computational complexity of graph and network problems, graph grammars, graph rewriting systems and graph modeling, graph drawing and layouts, computational geometry, computational biology, graph mining, random graphs and models of the web and scale-free networks, support of the above concepts by suitable implementations and applications.
