This conference will bring together international researchers to exchange ideas and results related to the theoretical and practical aspects of Data Compression, Data Communication, and Data Processing.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

_ Lossless and lossy data compression, source coding, compression for specific types of data, browsing and searching compressed data, minimal length encoding and applications to learning, applications in molecular biology, steganography and the hiding of information in compressed data sets.

_ Computer communication and networks, quality of service, traffic engineering, network design optimization and management, peer-to-peer, real time communication services (VoIP, Games, Video), routing, security, optical networking, energy-aware networks, e-commerce, internet services and protocols.

_ Data and image processing, string algorithms, parallel algorithms for string manipulation, statistical classification and pattern recognition, information retrieval, data security, signal processing, cryptography, data mining, bioinformatics and computational biology.

All the above topics are open to both research and industry contributions.

Papers reporting on original research unpublished elsewhere are primarily sought. Surveys of important results, especially recent ones, are also invited.

LOCATION:

Palinuro, Italy is a charming seaside resort on the Cilento Coast, 150 km
south of Naples. Palinuro is a jewel of a place in the midst of rugged
hills and caves. The beauty of the city is present everywhere and
overlooking the sea is the stunning landscape of Cilento Coast. The
naturalistic beauty of Palinuro is a wonder: it is visible in the
reflection of the sea, the rocky caves of thousand of different shapes
formed due to the corrosion of sea and in pure and wild nature. The pure
and unpolluted wildness of the coast, the wide spread beaches, the rough
inlets and the exquisite bays and sea caves offer breathtaking views to
the visitors.
