Since it was ?rst organized in 1997, the Japan Conference on Discrete and C- putational Geometry (JCDCG) continues to attract an international audience. The ?rst ?ve conferences of the series were held in Tokyo, the sixth in Manila, Philippines. This volume consists of the refereed papers presented at the seventh conference, JCDCG 2002, held in Tokai University, Tokyo, December 6-9, 2002. An eighth conference is planned to be held in Bandung, Indonesia. The proceedings of JCDCG 1998 and JCDCG 2000 were published by Springer-Verlag as part of the series Lecture Notes in Computer Science: LNCS volumes 1763 and 2098, respectively. The proceedings of JCDCG 2001 were also published by Springer-Verlag as a special issue of the journal Graphs and C- binatorics, Vol. 18, No. 4, 2002. The organizers are grateful to Tokai University for sponsoring the conf- ence. They wish to thank all the people who contributed to the success of the conference, in particular, Chie Nara, who headed the conference secretariat, and the principal speakers: Takao Asano, David Avis, Greg N. Frederickson, Ferran Hurtado, Joseph O'Rourke, J' anos Pach, Rom Pinchasi, and Jorge Urrutia.

This volume consists of the refereed papers presented at the Indonesia-Japan Joint Conference on Combinatorial Geometry and Graph Theory (IJCCGGT 2003), held on September 13-16, 2003 at ITB, Bandung, Indonesia. This conf- ence can also be considered as a series of the Japan Conference on Discrete and Computational Geometry (JCDCG), which has been held annually since 1997. The ?rst ?ve conferences of the series were held in Tokyo, Japan, the sixth in Manila, the Philippines, in 2001, and the seventh in Tokyo, Japan in 2002. The proceedings of JCDCG 1998, JCDCG 2000 and JCDCG 2002 were p- lished by Springer as part of the series Lecture Notes in Computer Science: LNCS volumes 1763, 2098 and 2866, respectively. The proceedings of JCDCG 2001 were also published by Springer as a special issue of the journal Graphs and Combinatorics, Vol. 18, No. 4, 2002.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the Second Japanese Conference on Discrete and Computational Geometry, JCDCG8, held in Tokyo, Japan, in December 1999. The 27 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the post-conference proceedings. Among the topics addressed are approximation, convex hulls, lattice computations, tilings, graph computations, Voronoi diagrams, clustering, graph drawing, diagram design, and illumination problems.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 7th China-Japan Conference on Discrete Geometry, Combinatorics and Graph Theory, CJCDGCGT 2005, held in Tianjin, China, as well as in Xi'an, China, in November 2005. The 30 revised full papers address all current issues in discrete algorithmic geometry, combinatorics and graph theory.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the Kyoto Conference on Computational Geometry and Graph Theory, KyotoCGGT 2007, held in Kyoto, Japan, in June 2007, in honor of Jin Akiyama and Vašek Chvátal, on the occasion of their 60th birthdays. The 19 revised full papers, presented together with 5 invited papers, were carefully selected during two rounds of reviewing and improvement from more than 60 talks at the conference. All aspects of Computational Geometry and Graph Theory are covered, including tilings, polygons, impossible objects, coloring of graphs, Hamilton cycles, and factors of graphs.

This book chronicles the development of graph factors and factorizations. It pursues a comprehensive approach, addressing most of the important results from hundreds of findings over the last century. One of the main themes is the observation that many theorems can be proved using only a few standard proof techniques. This stands in marked contrast to the seemingly countless, complex proof techniques offered by the extant body of papers and books. In addition to covering the history and development of this area, the book offers conjectures and discusses open problems. It also includes numerous explanatory figures that enable readers to progressively and intuitively understand the most important notions and proofs in the area of factors and factorization.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the China-Japan Joint Conference on Computational Geometry, Graphs and Applications, CGGA 2010, held in Dalian, China, in November 2010. The 23 revised full papers presented were carefully selected during two rounds of reviewing and improvement from numerous submissions. All aspects of computational and discrete geometry, graph theory, graph algorithms, and their applications are covered.
