We study the two-dimensional version of the bin packing problem with conflicts. We are given a set of (two-dimensional) squares V = {1, 2, . . . , n} with sides s1, s2 . . . , sn ...
This paper presents a search algorithm for finding functions that are highly correlated with an arbitrary set of data. The functions found by the search can be used to approximate...
We study the worst-case performance of the maximal matching heuristic applied to the Minimum Vertex Cover and Minimum Maximal Matching problems, through a careful analysis of tigh...
For a bounded integer , we wish to color all edges of a graph G so that any two edges within distance have different colors. Such a coloring is called a distance-edge-coloring or ...
The problems of contextual equivalence and approximation are studied for the third-order fragment of Idealized Algol with iteration (IA∗ 3). They are approached via a combination...
