TL;DR: The algebraic K-theory of spaces as mentioned in this paper is a variant of the standard algebraic ktheory for topology, introduced by F. Waldhausen in the late 1970s.
Abstract: The algebraic K–theory of spaces is a variant, invented by F. Waldhausen in the late 1970’s, of the standard algebraic K–theory of rings. Until that time, applications of algebraic K–theory to topology mostly relied on the passage from a space X with base point to Z[π1X], the group ring of the fundamental group of X. Waldhausen discovered that for more sweeping applications of algebraic K–theory to topology (described below) it is necessary to replace the fundamental group π1X by the space of based loops ΩX, and the group ring Z[π1X] by the space Q(ΩX+) = lim i→∞ ΩΣ(ΩX+)

TL;DR: In this paper, the satisfaction of Quillen's axioms over any site is a purely formal consequence of their being satisfied over the category of sets, i.e., their satisfaction is a consequence of the satisfaction over the set of sets.
Abstract: If a Quillen model category can be specified using a certain logical syntax (intuitively, ``is algebraic/combinatorial enough''), so that it can be defined in any category of sheaves, then the satisfaction of Quillen's axioms over any site is a purely formal consequence of their being satisfied over the category of sets. Such data give rise to a functor from the category of topoi and geometric morphisms to Quillen model categories and Quillen adjunctions.

TL;DR: In this article, the face and degeneracy maps of K were denoted by d: Kn Kn-1 and si:K respectively, and the terminology for semi-simplicial complexes was followed.
Abstract: homology and homotopy groups. The terminology for semi-simplicial complexes will follow John Moore [7]. In particular the face and degeneracy maps of K will be denoted by d: Kn Kn-1 and si:K. -> Kn+1 respectively. 1. The definition
