Sommario/riassunto

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed workshop post-proceedings of the 19th International Workshop on Approximation and Online Algorithms, WAOA 2021, held in September 2021. Due to COVID-19 pandemic the conference was held virtually. The 16 revised full papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 31 submissions. The papers focus on the design and analysis of algorithms for online and computationally hard problems.
