Contemporary Trends in Discrete Mathematics
Twenty-five papers from the May 1997 conference discuss current trends in discrete mathematics in all its versatility, width, and depth. The largest number of papers deal with graph theory. Other topics include a more structural (algebraic) approach, combinatorial questions of an algebraic nature, problems related to computer science, and applications.

DNA Based Computers II
The fledgling field of DNA computers began in 1994 when Leonard Adleman surprised the scientific community by using DNA molecules, protein enzymes, and chemicals to solve an instance of a hard computational problem. This volume presents results from the second annual meeting on DNA computers held at Princeton only one and one-half years after Adleman's discovery. By drawing on the analogy between DNA computing and cutting-edge fields of biology (such as directed evolution), this volume highlights some of the exciting progress in the field and builds a strong foundation for the theory of molecular computation.
Mathematical Support for Molecular Biology
Contains papers related to the 1994-98 DIMACS "Special Year" in Mathematical Support for Biology, which involved a series of tutorials, workshops, and lectures. Papers reflect diverse work at the interface between the mathematical sciences and molecular biology. Topics include new uses for uniform lifted alignments, sequence alignment and phylogeny construction, formal language theory and biological macromolecules, parallel strategies for DNA manipulation analysis, and visualizing measures of genetic distance.

External Memory Algorithms
The algorithms involve using techniques from computer science and mathematics to solve combinatorial problems whose associated data require the use of a hierarchy of storage devices. The 15 papers discuss such topics as synopsis data structures for massive data sets, maximum clique problems in very large graphs, concrete software libraries, computing on data streams, efficient cross-trees for external memory, efficient schemes for distributing data on parallel memory systems, and external memory techniques for iso-surface extraction in scientific visualization.

Codes and Association Schemes
This volume presents papers related to the DIMACS workshop, "Codes and Association Schemes". The articles are devoted to the following topics: applications of association schemes and of the polynomial method to properties of codes, structural results for codes, structural results for association schemes, and properties of orthogonal polynomials and their applications in combinatorics. Papers on coding theory are related to classical topics, such as perfect codes, bounds on codes, codes and combinatorial arrays, weight enumerators, and spherical designs. Papers on orthogonal polynomials provide new results on zeros and symptotic properties of standard families of polynomials encountered in coding theory. The theme of association schemes is represented by new classification results and new classes of schemes related to posets. This volume collects up-to-date applications of the theory of association schemes to coding and presents new properties of both polynomial and general association schemes. It offers a solid representation of results in problems in areas of current interest.

High Performance Algorithms and Software in Nonlinear Optimization
This book contains a selection of papers presented at the conference on High Performance Software for Nonlinear Optimization (HPSNO97) which was held in Ischia, Italy, in June, 1997. The book provides an overview of the nonlinear optimization field, including algorithms, software evaluation, implementation issues, applications, and areas of research, through authoritative papers by some of the most active and well-known researchers in the field. The papers of the Proceedings can be recommended to mathematicians, physicists, and engineers working in the fields mentioned above, as well as recommended for further reading within graduate studies.
