Abstract. This special issue of Algorithmica is dedicated to papers on topics of algorithms and data structures for problems motivated primarily from the Internet or Internet applications. These papers come from a wide variety of possible topics in Internet Algorithmics, which include the following:
• Web caching
• Web auctions
• Internet searching
• Internet routing and multicasting
• Internet-motivated security and security infrastructure
• Electronic commerce and electronic money
• Collaborative filtering
We hope that this special issue shows the value of algorithms for these topics. Moreover, Algorithmica welcomes future submissions on algorithms for the above topics as well.
