An instance of the multi-radius cover problem consists of a graph G = (V, E) with edge lengths l : E → R+ . Each vertex u ∈ V represents a transmission station for which a tra...
We study the online version of the Prize-Collecting Traveling Salesman Problem (PCTSP), a generalization of the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP). In the TSP, the salesman has to v...
The approximate searching problem on compressed text tries to find all the matches of a pattern in a compressed text, without decompressing it and considering that the match of th...
We give an O(n lg n)-time algorithm for counting the number of inversions in a permutation on n elements. This improves a long-standing previous bound of O(n lg n/ lg lg n) that ...
We consider a problem faced by train companies: How can trains be assigned to satisfy scheduled routes in a cost efficient way? Currently, many railway companies create solutions b...
