This volume is the proceedings of the first International Workshop on Orders, Algorithms, and Applications, held at Lyon, France in July 1994.Ordered sets and the more specifically algorithmic aspects of order theory are of increasing importance, for example in graph theory. They enjoy a recognized place in computer science as well as in mathematics, due to various new developments in the last few years. The nine technical papers accepted for this volume and the four invited papers presented offer a representative perspective on theoretical and applicational aspects of orders and related algorithms.weiterlesen
