This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 16th International Colloquium on Structural Information and Communication Complexity, SIROCCO 2009, held in Piran, Slovenia, in May 2009.
The 23 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 53 submissions. The volume also contains two invited papers. SIROCCO addresses topics such as distributed computing, parallel computing, game theory, social networks, networking, mobile computing, peer to peer systems, communication complexity, combinatorial optimization; special focus is put to compact data structures, information dissemination, informative labeling schemes, distributed scheduling, wireless networks and scheduling of transmissions, routing, broadcasting, and localization.
