This book constitutes the proceedings of the 24th International Conference on Computing and Combinatorics, COCOON 2018, held in Qing Dao, China, in July 2018. The 62 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 120 submissions. They deal with the areas of algorithms, theory of computation, computational complexity, and combinatorics related to computing.

The papers in this volume were presented at the Eleventh Annual International ComputingandCombinatorics Conference(COCOON2005), heldAugust16-19, 2005, in Kunming, China. The topicscovermost aspects oftheoreticalcomputer science and combinatorics related to computing. Submissionstotheconferencethisyearwereconductedelectronically.Atotal of 353 papers were submitted, of which 96 were accepted. So the competition is very ?erce. The papers were evaluated by an international program committee consisting of Tatsuya Akutsu, Vineet Bafna, Zhi-Zhong Chen, Siu-Wing Cheng, Francis Chin, Sunghee Choi, Bhaskar DasGupta, Qizhi Fang, Martin Farach- Colton, Ra?aele Giancarlo, Mordecai Golin, Peter Hammer, Tsan-sheng Hsu, Sorin C.

Ting, Seinosuke Toda, Takeshi Tokuyama, Peng-Jun Wan, Lusheng Wang, Todd Wareham, Jinhui Xu, Xizhong Zheng, Kaizhong Zhang and Binhai Zhu. The authors of submitted papers came from more than 25 countries and regions. In addition to the selected papers, the conference also included three invited presentations by Alberto Apostolico, Shang-Hua Teng, and Leslie G. Valiant. This year's Wang Hao Award (for young researchers) was given to the paperApproximatingtheLongestCycle Problem onGraphs with BoundedDegree by Guantao Chen, Zhicheng Gao, Xingxing Yu and Wenan Zang. I would like to thank all the people who made this meeting possible and - joyable: the authors for submitting papers and the programcommittee members andexternalrefereesfor their excellentwork.I wouldalsoliketo thank thethree invited speakers and the local organizers and colleagues for their assistanc

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Combinatorial Optimization and Applications, COCOA 2016, held in Hong Kong, China, in December 2016. The 60 full papers included in the book were carefully reviewed and selected from 122 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections such as graph theory, geometric optimization, complexity and data structure, combinatorial optimization, and miscellaneous.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Frontiers of Algorithmics Workshop, FAW 2012, and the 8th International Conference on Algorithmic Aspects in Information and Management, AAIM 2012, jointly held in Beijing, China, in May 2012. The 33 revised full papers presented together with 4 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 81 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on algorithms and data structures, algorithmic game theory and incentive analysis, biomedical imaging algorithms, communication networks and optimization, computational learning theory, knowledge discovery, and data mining, experimental algorithmic methodologies, optimization algorithms in economic and operations research, pattern recognition algorithms and trustworthy algorithms and trustworthy software.
