SPIRE 2002 is the ninth edition of the International
Symposium on String Processing and Information Retrieval.
It has its origins in the South American Workshop on String
Processing which was first held in Belo Horizonte, Brazil,
in 1993.
Starting in 1998, the focus
of the workshop was broadened to include the area of information
retrieval due to its increasing relevance and its inter-relationship
with the area of string processing.
The scope of the symposium
includes not only fundamental algorithms in string processing
but also contributions in different application areas like
biocomputing, DNA sequencing, WWW based IR systems and IR
related languages like SGML and XML.
Given its inter-disciplinarity,
it offers a singular opportunity for researchers interested
in working with problems related to these areas. The proceedings
will be published by Springer, in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Series.
Selected papers will be invited for publication
(in extended version, subject to refereeing) in a special
issue of the Journal of Discrete Algorithms.
