Martin Charles Golumbic has been making seminal contributions to
algorithmic graph theory and artificial intelligence throughout his
career. He is universally admired as a long-standing pillar of the
discipline of computer science. He has contributed to the
development of fundamental research in artificial intelligence in
the area of complexity and spatial-temporal reasoning as well as in
the area of compiler optimization. Golumbic's work in graph theory
led to the study of new perfect graph families such as tolerance
graphs, which generalize the classical graph notions of interval
graph and comparability graph. He is credited with introducing the
systematic study of algorithmic aspects in intersection graph
theory, and initiated research on new structured families of graphs
including the edge intersection graphs of paths in trees (EPT) and
trivially perfect graphs.
Golumbic is currently the founder and director of the Caesarea
Edmond Benjamin de Rothschild Institute for Interdisciplinary
Applications of Computer Science at the University of Haifa. He
also served as chairman of the Israeli Association of Artificial
Intelligence (1998-2004), and founded and chaired numerous
international symposia in discrete mathematics and in the
foundations of artificial intelligence.
This Festschrift volume, published in honor of Martin Charles
Golumbic on the occasion of his 60th birthday, contains 20 papers,
written by graduate students, research collaborators, and computer
science colleagues, who gathered at a conference on subjects
related to Martin Golumbic's manifold contributions in the field of
algorithmic graph theory and artificial intelligence, held in
Jerusalem, Tiberias and Haifa, Israel in September 2008.
