Combinatorics and Computer Science
This book presents a collection of 33 strictly refereed full papers on combinatorics and computer science; these papers have been selected from the 54 papers accepted for presentation at the joint 8th Franco-Japanese and 4th Franco-Chinese Conference on Combinatorics in Computer Science, CCS '96, held in Brest, France in July 1995. The papers included in the book have been contributed by authors from 10 countries; they are organized in sections entitled graph theory, combinatorial optimization, selected topics, and parallel and distributed computing.
Boundaries and Hulls of Euclidean Graphs
Boundaries and Hulls of Euclidean Graphs: From Theory to Practice presents concepts and algorithms for finding convex, concave and polygon hulls of Euclidean graphs. It also includes some implementations, determining and comparing their complexities. Since the implementation is application-dependent, either centralized or distributed, some basic concepts of the centralized and distributed versions are reviewed. Theoreticians will find a presentation of different algorithms together with an evaluation of their complexity and their utilities, as well as their field of application. Practitioners will find some practical and real-world situations in which the presented algorithms can be used.
Integer Programming and Related Areas
The fields of integer programming and combinatorial optimization continue to be areas of great vitality, with an ever increasing number of publications and journals appearing. A classified bibliography thus continues to be necessary and useful today, even more so than it did when the project, of which this is the fifth volume, was started in 1970 in the Institut fur Okonometrie und Operations Research of the University of Bonn. The pioneering first volume was compiled by Claus Kastning during the years 1970 - 1975 and appeared in 1976 as Volume 128 of the series Lecture Notes in Economics and Mathematical Systems published by the Springer Verlag. Work on the project was continued by Dirk Hau...
Combinatorial Optimization -- Eureka, You Shrink!
This book is dedicated to Jack Edmonds in appreciation of his ground breaking work that laid the foundations for a broad variety of subsequent results achieved in combinatorial optimization.The main part consists of 13 revised full papers on current topics in combinatorial optimization, presented at Aussois 2001, the Fifth Aussois Workshop on Combinatorial Optimization, March 5-9, 2001, and dedicated to Jack Edmonds.Additional highlights in this book are an account of an Aussois 2001 special session dedicated to Jack Edmonds including a speech given by William R. Pulleyblank as well as newly typeset versions of three up-to-now hardly accessible classical papers:- Submodular Functions, Matroids, and Certain Polyhedranbsp;nbsp; by Jack Edmonds- Matching: A Well-Solved Class of Integer Linear Programsnbsp;nbsp; by Jack Edmonds and Ellis L. Johnson- Theoretical Improvements in Algorithmic Efficiency for Network Flow Problemsnbsp;nbsp; by Jack Edmonds and Richard M. Karp.
Artificial Evolution

Artificial Evolution
The Arti?cial Evolution conference was originally conceived as a forum for the French-speaking Evolutionary Computation community, but has of late been acquiring an European audience, with several papers from Germany, Austria, Italy, Spain... However, AE remains as intended a small and friendly gathering, which will continue to be held every two years. Previous AE meets were held in Toulouse, Brest, and Nˆ ?mes. This year, the hosting was done by the LIL (Laboratoire d’Informatique du Littoral) in the not-so-cold city of Dunkerque. The invited talk on “Fitness Landscapes and Evolutionary Algorithms” was delivered by Colin Reeves of Coventry University This volume contains a selection ...
Skylines and Other Dominance-Based Queries
This book is a gentle introduction to dominance-based query processing techniques and their applications. The book aims to present fundamental as well as some advanced issues in the area in a precise, but easy-to-follow, manner. Dominance is an intuitive concept that can be used in many different ways in diverse application domains. The concept of dominance is based on the values of the attributes of each object. An object dominates another object if is better than . This goodness criterion may differ from one user to another. However, all decisions boil down to the minimization or maximization of attribute values. In this book, we will explore algorithms and applications related to dominance-based query processing. The concept of dominance has a long history in finance and multi-criteria optimization. However, the introduction of the concept to the database community in 2001 inspired many researchers to contribute to the area. Therefore, many algorithmic techniques have been proposed for the efficient processing of dominance-based queries, such as skyline queries, -dominant queries, and top- dominating queries, just to name a few.
Algorithms for Computational Biology
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Conference, AlCoB 2014, held in July 2014 in Tarragona, Spain. The 20 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 39 submissions. The scope of AlCoB includes topics of either theoretical or applied interest, namely: exact sequence analysis, approximate sequence analysis, pairwise sequence alignment, multiple sequence alignment, sequence assembly, genome rearrangement, regulatory motif finding, phylogeny reconstruction, phylogeny comparison, structure prediction, proteomics: molecular pathways, interaction networks, transcriptomics: splicing variants, isoform inference and quantification, differential analysis, next-generation sequencing: population genomics, metagenomics, metatranscriptomics, microbiome analysis, systems biology.
