We study the generalization of covering problems to partial covering. Here we wish to cover only a desired number of elements, rather than covering all elements as in standard cov...
Any tree can be represented in a max/ma//y compact form as a directed acyclic graph where common subtrees are factored and shared, being represented only once. Such a compaction ca...

In the design of communication networks, robustness against failures in single links or nodes is an important issue. This paper proposes a new approach for the NP-complete edge-bic...
This paper presents a local search algorithm based on variable depth search, called the k-opt local search, for the maximum clique problem. The k-opt local search performs add and...
A genetic algorithms is applied to find a maximum flow from the source to sink in a weighted directed graph, where the weight associated with each edge represents its flow capacit...
