SWAT is intended as a forum for researchers in the area of design and analysis of algorithms and data structures. We invite submissions of papers presenting original research on algorithms and data structures in all areas, including computational geometry, parallel and distributed computing, graph theory, and combinatorics. Contributors should send five hard copies of a full paper (not exceeding 12 pages) to
