This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 14th International Colloquium on Structural Information and Communication Complexity, SIROCCO 2007, held in Castiglioncello, Italy in June 2007.
The 23 revised full papers and four invited talks cover graph exploration, fault tolerance, distributed algorithms and data structures, location problems, wireless networks, fault tolerance, as well as parallel computing and selfish routing.
