Abstract. We consider the train delivery problem which is a generalization of the bin packing problem and is equivalent to a one dimensional version of the vehicle routing problem ...
We study algorithmic problems that are motivated by bandwidth trading in next generation networks. Typically, bandwidth trading involves sellers (e.g., network operators) interest...

We study several cost coloring problems, where we are given a graph and a cost function on the independent sets and are to find a coloring that minimizes the function costs of the...
We introduce a novel global constraint for the total weighted completion time of activities on a single unary capacity resource. For propagating the constraint, we propose an O(n4...
