Opis

The papers in this volume were presented at the 9th Workshop on Algorithms and Data Structures (WADS 2005). The workshop took place during August 15 17, 2005, at the University of Waterloo, Waterloo, Canada. The workshop alternateswith the ScandinavianWorkshopon Algorithm Theory(SWAT), c- tinuing the traditionof SWAT and WADS startingwith SWAT 1988and WADS 1989. From 90 submissions, the Program Committee selected 37 papers for p- sentation at the workshop. In addition, invited lectures were given by the f- lowing distinguished researchers: Allan Borodin and Max J. Egenhofer. OnbehalfoftheProgramCommittee, wewouldliketoexpressoursincere- preciation to the many persons whose e?ort contributed to making WADS 2005 a success. These include the invited speakers, members of the ste- ing and ProgramCommittees, the authors who submitted papers, and the many referees who assisted the ProgramCommittee. We are indebted to Robert Kane forinstallingandmodifyingthesubmissionsoftware, maintainingthesubmission server and interacting with authors as well as for helping with the preparation of the program.
