String Processing and Information Retrieval, 1st ed. 2017 24th International Symposium, SPIRE 2017, Palermo, Italy, September 26-29, 2017, Proceedings Theoretical Computer Science and General Issues Series

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 24th International Symposium on String Processing and Information Retrieval, SPIRE 2017, held in Palermo, Italy, in September 2017.
The 26 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 71 submissions. They focus on fundamental studies on string processing and information retrieval, as well as on computational biology.
