Opis

This volume presents the proceedings of the fourth annual International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation, held in Hong Kong in December 1993.Numerous selected papers present original research in such areas as design and analysis of algorithms, computational complexity, and theory of computation. Topics covered include: - automata, languages, and computability, - combinatorial, graph, geometric, and randomized algorithms, - networks and distributed algorithms, - VLSIand parallel algorithms, - theory of learning and robotics, - number theory and robotics. Three invited papers are also included.
