Book Overview

This volume contains the papers presented at SWAT 2004, the 9th Scandi- vian Workshop on Algorithm Theory, which was held on July 8-10, 2004, at the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Humleb k on the resund coast north of Copenhagen. The SWAT workshop, in reality a full-?edged conference, has been held biennially since 1988 and rotates among the ?ve Nordic countries, D- mark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden. The previous meetings took place ? in Halmstad (1988), Bergen (1990), Helsinki (1992), Arhus (1994), Reykjavik (1996), Stockholm (1998), Bergen (2000), and Turku (2002). SWAT alternates with the Workshop on Algorithms and Data Structures (WADS), held in o- numbered years.

The scienti?c program was enriched by invited presentations by Gerth St lting Brodal (University of Aarhus) and Charles E. Leiserson (Massachusetts Institute of Technology).
