摘要:This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Symposium, Latin American Theoretical Informatics, LATIN 2004, held in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in April 2004. The 59 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 178 submissions. The papers presented are devoted to a broad range of topics in theoretical computer science with a certain focus on algorithmics and computations related to discrete mathematics.
