The standard dynamic programming solution to finding k-medians on a line with n nodes requires O(kn2 ) time. Dynamic programming speedup techniques, e.g., use of the quadrangle i...
Abstract. Given a family of subsets of an n-element universe, the kcover problem asks whether there are k sets in the family whose union contains the universe; in the k-packing pro...
Abstract. Minimizing the makespan or maximizing the minimum machine load are two of the most important and fundamental parallel machine scheduling problems. In an online scenario, ...
We consider the Minimum Vertex Cover problem in intersection graphs of axis-parallel rectangles on the plane. We present two algorithms: The first is an EPTAS for non-crossing rect...
Abstract. We extend discrete-timed Petri nets with a cost model that assigns token storage costs to places and firing costs to transitions, and study the minimal cost reachability...
