Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We are glad to announce the upcoming Special Issue dedicated to parallel
string-matching algorithms and applications. With the recent advances in
big text data processing and applications, this Special Issue aims to
provide a comprehensive view of the efficient design and implementation of
string-matching algorithms for parallel and distributed computing
environments (such as multicores, manycores, clusters, CPU/GPUs, grids,
p2p, and clouds). We invite researchers and professionals to submit
theoretical or practical contributions that aim to present ideas,
techniques, and results of parallel computing in all aspects of string
matching and related applications (exact/approximate string matching,
single/multiple string matching, 2D string matching, and compressed string
processing). Manuscripts that focus on research of sequential
string-matching algorithms are welcome. Both original research and
comprehensive review/survey papers are also welcome.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following areas:

- String matching algorithms (exact/approximate, single/mutiple,
two-dimensional, text compression, etc.);

- Parallel string-matching algorithms using OpenMP and/or MPI;

- Parallel string-matching algorithms targeting GPUs and many-cores
accelerators;

- Parallel string-matching applications exploiting FPGA;

- Distributed string matching algorithms;

- Performance study and analysis of large-scale string-matching
applications;

- Libraries for string matching on parallel platforms;

- Applications of string matching in natural language processing,
computational linguistics, information retrieval, text/opinion mining, text
plagiarism, sentiment analysis, bioinformatics, computational biology,
intrusion detection, security, etc.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering
<https://www.mdpi.com/user/register/> and logging in to this website
<https://www.mdpi.com/user/login/>. Once you are registered, click here to
go to the submission form
<https://www.mdpi.com/user/manuscripts/upload/?journal=algorithms>.
Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All papers will be
peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the
journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special
issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short
communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract
(about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on
this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be
under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference
proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a
single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant
information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions
for Authors <https://www.mdpi.com/journal/algorithms/instructions> page.
*Algorithms* <https://www.mdpi.com/journal/algorithms/> is an international
peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors
<https://www.mdpi.com/journal/algorithms/instructions> page before
submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC)
<https://www.mdpi.com/about/apc/> for publication in this open access
<https://www.mdpi.com/about/openaccess/> journal is 1000 CHF (Swiss
Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English.
Authors may use MDPI's English editing service
