We show that it is not possible to approximate the minimum Steiner tree problem within 1 + 1 162 unless RP = NP. The currently best known lower bound is 1 + 1 400. The reduction i...
This workfocuses on the inference of evolutionary relationships in protein superfamilies, and the uses of these relationships to identify keypositions in the structure, to infer a...
In data integration applications, a join matches elements that are common to two data sources. Often, however, elements are represented slightly different in each source, so an app...
— We study the problem of computing minimal cost multicast trees in multi-hop wireless mesh networks. This problem is known as the Steiner tree problem, and it has been widely st...
Abstract. Network design involves several areas of engineering and science. Computer networks, electrical circuits, transportation problems, and phylogenetic trees are some example...
