The Spring school on fixed parameter and exact algorithms (Lozari, May 25,29, 2009) adresses to doctoral and post-doctoral students as well as confirmed.

Fixed parameter tractable (FPT) and exponential-time algorithms are hot topics in algorithms. Both approaches aim at reducing the combinatorial explosion of NP-hard problems. In moderately exponential-time algorithms, we search for fastest possible exact algorithms – typically the exponential time depends on the size of the instance – which should be practical on instances of moderate sizes. In FPT, the idea is to design algorithms for which the exponential factor of the running-time only depends on some parameter which is expected to be small in practical use.
