Solving optimally large instances of combinatorial optimization problems requires a huge amount of computational resources. In this paper, we propose an adaptation of the parallel...
We prove that the First Fit bin packing algorithm is stable under the input distribution U{k - 2, k} for all k 3, settling an open question from the recent survey by Coffman, Gar...
The study of genome rearrangements is an important tool in comparative genomics. This paper revisits the problem of sorting a multichromosomal genome by translocations, i.e. exchan...
Belief-logic deductions are used in the analysis of cryptographic protocols. We show a new method to decide such logics. In addition to the familiar BAN logic, it is also applicab...
We consider several problems related to the use of resolution-based methods for determining whether a given boolean formula in conjunctive normal form is satisfiable. First, build...
