Extracting a largest redundancy-free XML storage structure from an acyclic hypergraph in polynomial time
Given a hypergraph and a set of embedded functional dependencies, we investigate the problem of determining the conditions under which we can efficiently generate redundancy-free ...

On the Complexity of the Asymmetric VPN Problem
We give the first constant factor approximation algorithm for the asymmetric Virtual Private Network (Vpn) problem with arbitrary concave costs. We even show the stronger result, ...

Computing Role Assignments of Proper Interval Graphs in Polynomial Time
A homomorphism from a graph G to a graph R is locally surjective if its restriction to the neighborhood of each vertex of G is surjective. Such a homomorphism is also called an R-r...

Designing an A* Algorithm for Calculating Edit Distance between Rooted-Unordered Trees
Tree structures are useful for describing and analyzing biological objects and processes. Consequently, there is a need to design metrics and algorithms to compare trees. A natura...
