Garg [10] gives two approximation algorithms for the minimum-cost tree spanning k vertices in an undirected graph. Recently Jain and Vazirani [16] discovered primal-dual approxima...
The bounded diameter minimum spanning tree problem is an NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem arising in particular in network design. There exist various exact and metaheuri...
We study a variant of the maximum coverage problem which we label the maximum coverage problem with group budget constraints (MCG). We are given a collection of sets S = {S1, S2, ....
Background: The sparse connectivity of protein-protein interaction data sets makes identification of functional modules challenging. The purpose of this study is to critically eva...
P2P systems are increasingly used to discover and share various data between users. The performance of a P2P based information retrieval system is determined by the efficiency of...
