Stringology 2015 - 2015 Prague Stringology Conference

SC 2015 is the 20th event of the Prague Stringology Club. It is an international conference focusing on stringology and related areas. It is organized annually by the Prague Stringology Club, a research group in the Department of Theoretical Computer Science at the Faculty of Information Technology, Czech Technical University in Prague. The proceedings of recent conferences are indexed in DBLP, Scopus, and Web of Science of Thomson Reuters.
Stringology is a part of algorithmic research that deals with the processing of text strings. It has existed for at least thirty years and developed into a respected subfield of its own. The last twenty years have produced an explosion of new results. This progress is due in part to the human genome effort, an area to which string algorithms can make important contributions. String processing extended into tree processing is called arbology.
The topics of the conference include but are not limited to:
algorithms for pattern matching in strings, images and trees
data structures (automata, trees etc.) for pattern matching in strings, images and trees
coding and data compression
bioinformatics
information retrieval
string processing algorithms in databases
searching for regularities
natural language processing
