N COMPUTER applications we are used to live with approximation. Var I ious notions of approximation appear, in fact, in many circumstances. One notable example is the type of approximation that arises in numer ical analysis or in computational geometry from the fact that we cannot perform computations with arbitrary precision and we have to truncate the representation of real numbers. In other cases, we use to approximate com plex mathematical objects by simpler ones: for example, we sometimes represent non-linear functions by means of piecewise linear ones. The need to solve difficult...

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Fun with Algorithms, FUN 2007, held in Castiglioncello, Italy in June 2007. It details the use, design, and analysis of algorithms and data structures, focusing on results that provide amusing, witty, but nonetheless original and scientifically profound, contributions to the area.

The papers in this volume were presented at the Second Italian Conference onAlgorithms and Complexity, held in February 1994 in Rome. This biannual conference series is intended to present research contributions in theory and applications of sequential, parallel, and distributed algorithms, data structures, and computational complexity. The volume contains four invited presentations and 14 regular presentations selected from 32 submissions, each of which was evaluated by at least four program committee members. The invited presentations are by J. Hartmanis and S. Chari, A. Garg and R....
