This Special Issue contains a selection of expanded, peer-reviewed papers originally presented at the 20th Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2012) held in Ljubljana, Slovenia, on September 10–12, 2012. The ESA symposia are devoted to fostering and disseminating the results of high quality research on the design and evaluation of algorithms and data structures. The forum seeks original algorithmic contributions for problems with relevant theoretical and/or practical applications and aims at bringing together researchers in the computer science and operations research communities. The conference received 285 submissions from 40 countries and the PC selected 69 papers among which we decided to pick seven excellent papers composing this Special Issue. These journal papers, which have been rigorously reviewed according to the journal standards, cover a wide range of algorithmic topics, thereby appealing to both the experts in the field as well as to those who wish a snapshot of the current breadth of research in this area.

Abstract
This Special Issue contains a selection of expanded, peer-reviewed papers originally presented at the 20th Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2012) held in Ljubljana, Slovenia, on September 10–12, 2012. The ESA symposia are devoted to fostering and disseminating the results of high quality research on the design and evaluation of algorithms and data structures. The forum seeks original algorithmic contributions for problems with relevant theoretical and/or practical applications and aims at bringing together researchers in the computer science and operations research communities. The conference received 285 submissions from 40 countries and the PC selected 69 papers among which we decided to pick seven excellent papers composing this Special Issue. These journal papers, which have been rigorously reviewed according to the journal standards, cover a wide range of algorithmic topics, thereby appealing to both the experts in the field as well as to those who wish a snapshot of the current breadth of research in this area.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
