Searching for optimal solutions to a problem using lower bounds obtained from a relaxation is a common idea in Heuristic Search and Planning. In SAT and CSPs, however, explicit rel...
To provide real-time service or engineer constrained-based paths, networks require the underlying routing algorithm to be able to find low-cost paths that satisfy given Quality-of...
1 We consider the problem of scheduling an unknown sequence of tasks for a single server as the tasks arrive with the goal off maximizing the total weighted value of the tasks serv...
Capacity scaling is a hierarchical approach to graph representation that can improve theoretical complexity and practical efficiency of max-flow/min-cut algorithms. Introduced by ...
Dimension attributes in data warehouses are typically hierarchical (e.g., geographic locations in sales data, URLs in Web traffic logs). OLAP tools are used to summarize the measu...
