Solving combinatorial exchanges: optimality via a few partial bids
We investigate the problem of matching buyers and sellers in a multi-item multi-unit combinatorial exchange so as to maximize either the surplus (revenue minus cost) or the tradin...

Branch and Bound on the Network Model
Karp and Zhang developed a general randomized parallel algorithm for solving branch and bound problems. They showed that with high probability their algorithm attained optimal spe...

The Minimised Geometric Buchberger Algorithm: An Optimal Algebraic Algorithm for Integer Programming
IP problems characterise combinatorial optimisation problems where conventional numerical methods based on the hill-climbing technique can not be directly applied. Conventional me...

Maximum Likelihood Bounded Tree-Width Markov Networks
We study the problem of projecting a distribution onto (or finding a maximum likelihood distribution among) Markov networks of bounded tree-width. By casting it as the combinatori...
