Abstract
In this chapter, we shall introduce techniques for efficient representation and manipulation of objects. We say that a representation is explicit if the objects it represents are listed one by one internally. Objects are manipulated explicitly, if they are processed one after another. An implicit representation means a shared representation of the objects, such that the size of the representation is not linearly proportional to the number of objects in it. In an implicit manipulation many objects are processed simultaneously in one step.
