: In this paper we consider the edge ranking problem of weighted trees. We prove that a special instance of this problem, namely edge ranking of multitrees is NP-hard already for m...
We prove that the pathwidth of Halin graphs can be 3-approximated in linear time. Our approximation algorithms is based on a combinatorial result about respectful edge orderings o...
We show that there exists a linear time algorithm for deciding whether a graph of bounded tree-width has clique-width k for some fixed integer k. Communicated by Giuseppe Liotta ...
Regular Expressions (REs) form the basis of most XML type languages, such as DTDs, XML Schema types, and XDuce types (Thompson et al. 2004; Hosoya and Pierce 2003). In this contex...
Abstract. Sometimes there is a need to store sensitive data on an untrusted database server. Song, Wagner and Perrig have introduced a way to search for the existence of a word in ...
