Abstract. We explore the effects of using graph width metrics as restrictions on the input to online problems. It seems natural to suppose that, for graphs having some form of bou...
— Scheduling by Edge Reversal (SER) is a fully distributed scheduling mechanism based on the manipulation of acyclic orientations of a graph. This work uses SER to perform constr...
We give the first polynomial-time approximation scheme (PTAS) for the Steiner forest problem on planar graphs and, more generally, on graphs of bounded genus. As a first step, w...
: In this paper, we will propose PC-Filter (PC stands for Partition Comparison), a robust data filter for approximately duplicate record detection in large databases. PC-Filter dis...

Motivated by applications in grid computing and projects management, we study multiprocessor scheduling in scenarios where there is uncertainty in the successful execution of jobs...
