We introduce a new technique to solve exactly a discrete optimization problem, based on the paradigm of “negative” thinking. The motivation is that when searching the space of...

Technology mapping can be viewed as the optimization problem of finding a minimum cost cover of the given Boolean network by choosing from given library of logic cells. The core of...
The problem of efficiently monitoring the network flow is regarded as the one to find out the minimum weighted weak vertex cover set for a given graph G = (V, E) with weight func...
In portable multimedia systems a number of communicating tasks has to be performed on a set of heterogeneous processors. This should be done in an energy-efficient way. We give th...
In the maximum common subgraph (MCS) problem, we are given a pair of graphs and asked to find the largest induced subgraph common to them both. With its plethora of applications,...
