A two-stage optimization methodology is proposed to solve the fixed-outline floorplanning problem that is a global optimization problem for wirelength minimization. In the first st...
Wire routing in a VLSI chip often requires minimization of wire-length as well as the number of intersections among multiple nets. Such an optimization problem is computationally ...

' An efficient assignment of tasks to the processors is imperative for achieving a fast job turnaround time in a parallel or distributed enviornment. The assignment problem is...
In this paper, we introduce and study the Minimum Consistent Subset Cover (MCSC) problem. Given a finite ground set X and a constraint t, find the minimum number of consistent sub...
