For a graph G and a collection of vertex pairs {(s1, t1), . . . , (sk, tk)}, the k disjoint paths problem is to find k vertex-disjoint paths P1, . . . , Pk, where Pi is a path fr...
Abstract. In this paper we propose an optimal anytime version of constrained simulated annealing (CSA) for solving constrained nonlinear programming problems (NLPs). One of the goa...
In past massively parallel processing systems, such as the TMC CM-5 and the CRI T3E, the scheduling problem consisted of allocating a single type of resource among the waiting job...
We consider the problem of identifying common three-dimensional substructures between proteins. Our method is based on comparing the shape of the α-carbon backbone structures of ...

Classification is an important problem in data mining. Given a database of records, each with a class label, a classifier generates a concise and meaningful description for each c...
