The 26 revised full papers presented together with 4 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 72 submissions. The papers address all current aspects of fast and secure primitives for symmetric cryptology and are organized in topical sections on SHA collisions, new hash function designs, block cipher cryptanalysis, implementation aspects, hash function cryptanalysis, stream cipher cryptanalysis, security bounds, and entropy.

The refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Discrete Mathematics and Theoretical Computer Science, DMTCS 2003, held in Dijon, France, in July 2003. The 18 revised full papers presented together with 5 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 35 submissions. A broad variety of topics in discrete mathematics and the theory of computing is addressed including information theory, coding, algorithms, complexity, automata, computational mathematics, combinatorial computations, graph computations, algorithmic geometry, relational methods, game-theoretic methods, combinatorial optimization, and finite state systems.

The 26th International Workshop on Graph-Theoretic Concepts in Computer Science (WG 2000) was held at Waldhaus Jakob, in Konstanz, Germany, on 15{ 17 June 2000. It was organized by the Algorithms and Data Structures Group of the Department of Computer and Information Science, University of K- stanz, and sponsored by Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) and Univ- sit¨atsgesellschaft Konstanz. The workshop aims at uniting theory and practice by demonstrating how graph-theoretic concepts can be applied to various areas in computer science, or by extracting new problems from applications. The goal is to present recent research results and to identify and explore directions for future research. The workshop looks back on a remarkable tradition of more than a quarter of a century. Previous Workshops have been organized in various places in Europe, and submissions come from all over the world. This year, 57 attendees from 13 di erent countries gathered in the relaxing atmosphere of Lake Constance, also known as the Bodensee. Out of 51 submis- ons, the program committee carefully selected 26 papers for presentation at the workshop. This selection re?ects current research directions, among them graph and network algorithms and their complexity, algorithms for special graph cl- ses, communication networks, and distributed algorithms. The present volume contains these papers together with the survey presented in an invited lecture by Ingo Wegener (University of Dortmund) and an extended abstract of the invited lecture given by Emo Welzl (ETH Zuric ¨ h).

The 7th Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA'99) is held in Prague, Czech Republic, July 16-18, 1999. This continued the tradition of the meetings which were held in – 1993 Bad Honnef (Germany) – 1994 Utrecht (Netherlands) – 1995 Corfu (Greece) – 1996 Barcelona (Spain) – 1997 Graz (Austria) – 1998 Venice (Italy) (The proceedingsof previousESA meetings were publishedas Springer LNCS v- umes 726, 855, 979, 1136, 1284, 1461.) In the short time of its history ESA (like its sister meeting SODA) has become a popular and respected meeting. The call for papers stated that the “Symposium covers research in the use, design, and analysis of ef?cient algorithms and data structures as it is carried out in c- puter science, discrete applied mathematics and mathematical programming. Papers are solicited describing original results in all areas of algorithmic research, including but not limited to: Approximation Algorithms; Combinatorial Optimization; Compu- tional Biology; Computational Geometry; Databases and Information Retrieval; Graph and Network Algorithms; Machine Learning; Number Theory and Computer Algebra; On-line Algorithms; Pattern Matching and Data Compression; Symbolic Computation.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the 27th International Workshop on Graph-Theoretic Concepts in Computer Science, WG 2001, held in Boltenhagen, Germany, in June 2001.The 27 revised full papers presented together with two invited contributions were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The papers provide a wealth of new results for various classes of graphs, graph computations, graph algorithms and graph-theoretical applications in various fields.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th Workshop on Algorithm Engineering, WAE 2001, held in Aarhus, Denmark, in August 2001. The 15 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 25 submissions. Among the topics addressed are implementation, experimental testing, and fine-tuning of discrete algorithms; novel use of discrete algorithms in other disciplines; empirical research on algorithms and data structures; and methodological issues regarding the process of converting user requirements into efficient algorithmic solutions and implemenations.

The Complexity Theory Companion is an accessible, algorithmically oriented, research-centered, up-to-date guide to some of the most interesting techniques of complexity theory.The book's thesis is that simple algorithms are at the heart of complexity theory. From the tree-pruning and interval-pruning algorithms that shape the first chapter to the query simulation procedures that dominate the last chapter, the central proof methods of the book are algorithmic. And to more clearly highlight the role of algorithmic techniques in complexity theory, the book is - unlike other texts on complexity - organized by technique rather than by topic. Each chapter of this book focuses on one technique: what it is, and what results and applications it yields. This textbook was developed at the University of Rochester in courses given to graduate students and advanced undergraduates. Researchers also will find this book a valuable source of reference due to the comprehensive bibliography of close to five hundred entries, the thirty-five page subject index, and the appendices giving overviews of complexity classes and reductions.
