Conf., San Francisco/CA (USA) 1989, 441-458 (1991). [For the entire collection see Zbl 0734.00014.]From the authors’ abstract: This expository paper explores many of the ways that distance is encountered in graph theory. These include the standard distance between vertices (and the resulting concepts of center and periphery), the distance of a vertex and the median of a graph, Steiner distance in a graph, the edge rotation and edge slide distance between graphs, and two subgraph distances, including the edge rotation subgraph distance which gives rise to a generalization of line graphs.
