On Exact and Approximation Algorithms for Distinguishing Substring Selection
Abstract. The NP-complete Distinguishing Substring Selection problem (DSSS for short) asks, given a set of “good” strings and a set of “bad” strings, for a solution string ...

A Polynomial-Time Approximation Algorithm for a Geometric Dispersion Problem
We consider the problem of placing a set of disks in a region containing obstacles such that no two disks intersect. We are given a bounding polygon P and a set R of possibly inte...
