Restructuring ordered binary trees
We consider the problem of restructuring an ordered binary tree T , preserving the in-order sequence of its nodes, so as to reduce its height to some target value h. Such a restru...

Algorithms for optimizing production DNA sequencing
We discuss the problem of optimally "finishing" a partially sequenced, reconstructed DNA segment. At first sight, this appears to be computationally hard. We construct a...

Communication complexity of document exchange
We address the problem of minimizing the communication involved in the exchange of similar documents. We consider two users, A and B, who hold documents x and y respectively. Neit...

Escaping a grid by edge-disjoint paths
We study the edge-disjoint escape problem in grids. Given a set of n sources in a two-dimensional grid, the problem is to connect all sources to the grid boundary using a set of n...
