Abstract. Approximate string matching is a fundamental and challenging problem in computer science, for which a fast algorithm is highly demanded in many applications including tex...
In this paper we describe a general grouping technique to devise faster and simpler approximation schemes for several scheduling problems. We illustrate the technique on two diff...
