CALL FOR PAPERS
===============
PDADS 2022 will focus on R&D efforts in cross-cutting areas at the intersection of algorithms research, computational sciences, decision sciences and optimization. 

Both regular papers as well as short position papers describing work-in-progress with innovative ideas related to the workshop topics are being solicited. The Second PDADS-2022 Workshop Proceedings will be published as a separate volume along with the ICPP 2022 conference proceedings.
