Preface
For several years the German Research Training Groups in computer science
havemetatSchlossDagstuhl-theLeibnizCenterforInformatics,theworld’s
premiervenueforresearchseminarsincomputerscience. Thisjointworkshop,
funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG), aims to provide
a platform for the exchange of knowledge and the discussion of research
findings.
Every year one Research Training Group is responsible for the planning
and organization of this event. For the current workshop in 2010, this is
done by the Research Training Group AlgoSyn1 from Aachen. In order to
provide as much information as possible about the participating Research
Training Groups every scholarship holder was asked to submit an abstract
describing briefly his/her research topic. People who give a talk during the
workshop got the opportunity to submit extended abstracts. Additionally,
the Research Training Groups were invited to shortly introduce themselves.
Sincere thanks to everybody who has contributed to the creation of these
proceedings, especially the abstracts’ authors. Furthermore, special thanks
to the DFG for the yearly funding of the joint workshops.
