Description
Springer Computer Science 2 Research And Applications 1994 Edition by Ricardo Baeza-Yates
The articles in this proceedings were presented at the 13th International Conference of the Chilean Computer Science Society held in La Serena Chile on October 14-16 1993. A record number of 90 submissions were received this year in response to the call for papers. They came from 19 countries in four continents. The 44 articles presented here were selected by the program committee whose members were Ricardo Baeza-Yates (Chair Univ. de Chile) Leopoldo Bertossi (U niv. Catolica de Chile) Jorge Boria (Schlumberger USA & UNICEN Argentina) Edgardo Broner (Univ. Simon Bolivar Venezuela) Pere Brunet (Polytechnic of Catalunya Spain) Jose Blakeley (Texas Instruments USA) Eduardo Krell (Fundacion Chile) Tomas Lang (Univ. of California at Irvine USA) Rosana Lanzelotte (PUC-Rio Brazil) Stefano Levialdi (Univ. di Roma Italy) Jorge Lobo (Univ. of Illinois at Chicago USA) Jose Palazzo (UFRGS Brazil) Christian Queinnec (Poly technique & INRIA France) Gregory Rawlins (Indiana University USA) Carlos Scheel (Tecnologico de Monterrey Mexico) Robbert Van Renesse (Cornell Univ. USA) The criteria for selection was based primarily on quality; we also considered relevance clarity and the potential benefit to the community. The contents of these proceedings are organized on six main areas (number of papers in parentheses) : Algorithms and Data Structures (10); Databases and Information Systems (6); Distributed Systems and Computer Architecture (6); Logic and Knowledge (8); Petri Nets (4); and Software Engineering and Programming Languages (10). They also include one invited paper. Table of contents : Algorithms and Data Structures: Applying Genetic Algorithms to the LoadBalancing Problem (A.A. Freitas et al.).
