Frontiers in Algorithmics

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 9th International Workshop on Frontiers in Algorithmics, FAW 2015, held in Guilin, China, in July 2015.

The 28 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 65 submissions. They deal with graph algorithms, approximation algorithms, combinatorial optimization, parameterized algorithms, and online algorithms.
