Algorithmica
The 26th International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2015) was held in Nagoya, Japan, December 9-11, 2015. The program committee received 180 high-quality submissions, and 65 were accepted for presentation. This special issue gathers a selection of five of these accepted papers, which went through the standard refereeing process of Algorithmica. In the paper by Aline Saettler, Eduardo Laber and Ferdinando Cicalese, the authors characterize the best possible trade-off achievable

... when optimizing the construction of a decision tree with respect to both the worst and the expected costs, given a probability distribution on the input. For every ρ > 0, they show that there is a decision tree with worst-case cost of at most (1 + ρ)OPT W + 1 and expected cost at most 1/(1 − e −ρ )OPT E , where OPT W and OPT E denote respectively the minimum worst-case cost and the minimum expected cost of a decision tree for the given instance. They also present an infinite family of instances for which this is essentially the best possible trade-off. The paper by Sumedh Tirodkar and Sundar Vishwanathan is on the approximability of the minimum rainbow subgraph (MRS) problem, which has applications in computational biology. Given an n-vertex edge-colored undirected graph, the goal is to find a subgraph on a minimum number of vertices which has one induced edge of each color. By considering a colored version of the well-known k-densest subgraph B Khaled Elbassioni

Discrete & Computational Geometry
This special issue of Discrete & Computational Geometry contains a selection of seven papers whose preliminary versions appeared in the Proceedings of the Annual Symposium on Computational Geometry, Kyoto, Japan, June 8-11, 2014. The seven papers in this issue were invited, submitted, and then reviewed according to the usual, high standards of the journal. These papers cover a wide spectrum of topics in computational geometry. Chan and Lee propose algorithms for a number of geometric problems

... the comparison-based model that achieve optimality in the constant factors of the leading terms. The problems include 2D and 3D maxima, 2D convex hull, segment intersection searching, and point location among axis-parallel boxes in 3D or in a 3D box subdivision. Bonichon, Kanj, Perković, and Xia study the maximum degree of a plane spanner with constant stretch. There is a known lower bound of three, and there has been a series of results that gradually reduce the maximum degree to six. This paper presents a new upper bound of four which almost closes the gap between the upper and lower bounds. Har-Peled and Raichel give a near linear bound on the expected complexity of the multiplicatively weighted Voronoi diagram of n sites in the plane. The locations of the sites are fixed, and the sites can be points, segments, or convex sets. The weights of the sites may be a random sample from a distribution or a random permutation of n

photo courtesy of Bojan Mohar) The volume you are holding in your hand is in memory of Branko Grünbaum-one of the giants and founders of Discrete Geometry as we know it today. Throughout his 60-year career, Branko (sometimes almost single-handedly) created and revamped major subfields of this fascinating field. That list includes the theory of convex polytopes, abstract polytopes, Helly's theorem and its relatives, arrangements and spreads, patterns and tilings, and the geometric graph theory,

This was a lively scientific event, held in a relaxed workshop atmosphere that allowed for an informal, but intense, discussion of the status of research in the field of process algebra, broadly construed. The workshop witnessed the continuing vitality of this branch of concurrency theory, and we trust that, apart from being a celebration of over 20 years of research in this field, it contributed to its healthy development by highlighting some open problems, and possible new avenues for

... . We believe that the papers collected in this volume will offer the process algebra community at large some inspiration for reflection on past achievements, and some suggestions for further research. Our efforts in organizing this workshop, and in editing the present volume, will be amply rewarded if young researchers will be enticed to work in process theory by reading the high quality and varied contributions to this volume, by the solution of some of the open problems that were raised during the event, or by the further development of work along the future directions that were pointed out in Bertinoro. The first contribution to this volume is a piece by Jos Baeten of a historical nature. It provides an excellent, personal introduction to the origin of the ideas that form the basis for the field of process algebra, describes the latest developments in this research area, and offers directions for future work. As such, it serves as a scientific preface to the technical contributions in the volume. The scientific contributions to this volume offer a bird's eye view of different research directions in process algebra. The first of these is a study in classic process algebra by Luttik and van Oostrom that provides a generalization of extant results on parallel decomposition of processes modulo bisimulation equivalence. The paper by Corradini and Vogler gives a contribution to the use of process algebra in the quantitative analysis of concurrent systems. It does so by demonstrating how to adapt their previous work on a testing-based faster-than relation to a setting where user behaviour is known to belong to a specific class of request-response behaviours. In particular, the authors show how to determine an asymptotic performance measure for finite-state processes in their approach. Hybrid systems are systems consisting of discrete components interacting with a continuously evolving environment.
