Sommario/riassunto

This book constitutes the carefully refereed post-proceedings of the 22nd International Workshop on Graph-Theoretic Concepts in Computer Science, WG '96, held in Cadenabbia, Italy, in June 1996. The 30 revised full papers presented in the volume were selected from a total of 65 submissions. This collection documents the state of the art in the area. Among the topics addressed are graph algorithms, graph rewriting, hypergraphs, graph drawing, networking, approximation and optimization, trees, graph computation, and others.
