A survey of the most important and general techniques in parameterized algorithm design is given. Each technique is explained with a meta-algorithm, its use is illustrated by exam...
Application-specific, parameterized local search algorithms (PLSAs), in which optimization accuracy can be traded off with runtime, arise naturally in many optimization contexts....
Many divide-and-conquer algorithms employ the fact that the vertex set of a graph of bounded treewidth can be separated in two roughly balanced subsets by removing a small subset o...

In this paper, we revisit the classic and well-studied longest common subsequence (LCS) problem and study some new variants, first introduced and studied by Rahman and Iliopoulos ...

Many NP-hard problems can be solved efficiently when the input is restricted to graphs of bounded tree-width or clique-width. In particular, by the celebrated result of Courcelle,...
