Résumé :
The refereed proceedings of the 8th International Workshop on Algorithms and Data Structures, WADS 2003, held in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, in July/August 2003. The 40 revised full papers presented together with 4 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 126 submissions. A broad variety of current aspects in algorithmics and data structures is addressed.
