In this paper we consider the problem of nding a core of limited length in a tree. A core is a path, which minimizes the sum of the distances to all nodes in the tree. This proble...

Consider a convex set P in IRd and a piecewise polynomial concave function F: P IR. Let A be an algorithm that given a point x IRd computes F(x) if x P, or returns a concave po...
A critical problem in clustering research is the definition of a proper metric to measure distances between points. Semi-supervised clustering uses the information provided by the ...
We give subquadratic algorithms that, given two necklaces each with n beads at arbitrary positions, compute the optimal rotation of the necklaces to best align the beads. Here ali...

The main aim of this paper is to consider university examination timetabling problems as multicriteria decision problems. A new multicriteria approach to solving such problems is p...
