We propose and study the Maximum Constrained Agreement Subtree (MCAST) problem, which is a variant of the classical Maximum Agreement Subtree (MAST) problem. Our problem allows us...
This paper describes a parallel implementation of our recently developed algorithm for phylogenetic analysis on the IBM BlueGene/L cluster [15]. This algorithm constructs evolutio...

Given an edge-weighted tree T, a k-trunk is a subtree Tk with k leaves in T which minimizes the sum of the distances of all vertices in T from Tk plus the weight of Tk. In this pa...
Multi-pattern matching involves matching a data item against a large database of “signature” patterns. Existing algorithms for multipattern matching do not scale well as the s...

We give tight bounds on the parallel complexity of some problems involving random graphs. Speci cally, we show that a Hamiltonian cycle, a breadth rst spanning tree, and a maximal...
