An Optimal Rebuilding Strategy for an Incremental Tree Problem
This paper is devoted to the following incremental problem. Initially, a graph and a distinguished subset of vertices, called initial group, are given. This group is connected by ...

A new heuristic for rectilinear Steiner trees
The minimum rectilinear Steiner tree (RST) problem is one of the fundamental problems in the field of electronic design automation. The problem is NP-hard, and much work has been ...

Conditional Inequalities and the Shortest Common Superstring Problem
We investigate the shortest common superstring problem (SCSSP). As SCSSP is APX-complete it cannot be approximated within an arbitrarily small performance ratio. One heuristic tha...

Construction of a Proxy-Based Overlay Skeleton Tree for Large-Scale Real-Time Group Communications
Abstract. We consider the problem of constructing a proxy-based overlay skeleton tree (POST) in the backbone service domain of a two-tier overlay multicast infrastructure. Spanning...

How Well Can Primal-Dual and Local-Ratio Algorithms Perform?
We define an algorithmic paradigm, the stack model, that captures many primal-dual and local-ratio algorithms for approximating covering and packing problems. The stack model is ...
