The papers in this volume were presented at the Third
Workshop on Algorithmsand Data Structures (WADS '93), held
in Montreal, Canada, August 1993.
The volume opens with five invited presentations: "Computing
the all-pairs longest chains in the plane" by M.J. Atallah
and D.Z. Chen, "Towards a better understanding of pure
packet routing" by A. Borodin, "Tolerating faults in meshes
and other networks" (abstract) by R. Cole, "A generalization
of binary search" by R.M. Karp, and "Groups and algebraic
complexity" (abstract) by A.C. Yao. The volume continues
with 52 regular presentations selected from 165 submissions,
each of which was evaluated by at least three program
committee members, many of whom called upon additional
reviewers.
