Call for Submissions IEEE Software - Special Issue on Algorithms for Today's Practitioner Submissions due: 1st June 2011 Publication date: January/February 2012 IEEE Software seeks submissions for a special issue on the topic of Algorithms and Today's Practitioner, with the aim of bringing the message to today's practitioners that the everyday relevance of algorithms to software engineers is clear and present. This issue will focus on the central role of algorithms in the software engineering community, bringing both a historical perspective on breakthrough algorithms that have enabled entire industrial sectors to advance and a contemporary perspective on algorithms in everyday industrial practice. We encourage contributions that stress the relevance of algorithms to modern topics in software engineering that survey modern algorithmic accomplishment, and that highlight the central role of algorithms in today's software engineering practice. Also, we seek articles that give a general overview of the main algorithmic approaches and libraries adopted in real-world applications of interest for the software engineering community, thus providing a useful tool that would help in the selection of the appropriate solutions in today's practitioner work. Areas of particular interest include: - Overview articles of key areas in which algorithmic advances have made possible the emergence and growth of significant business sectors (e.g. computer graphics, search, massively parallel computing, etc.) - Articles on the practical selection and utilization of algorithms in everyday industrial projects in order to elevate and guarantee the quality of products and services produced. - Articles on new paradigms and techniques for communicating algorithms to practitioners, much as the design pattern paradigm opened the way for the communication of software design principles. - Articles on important packages and delivery mechanisms for algorithms to today's development environments, including best practices and approaches for their design. - Articles on modern teaching approaches that expose students and practitioners to compelling real-world applications of algorithmic techniques. Potential authors are reminded of the practitioner-related mission of IEEE Software and that theoretical, formula-laden presentations of specific algorithmic topics are considered to be out of scope and may be rejected without refereeing.
