We consider the problem of pricing items so as to maximize the profit made from selling these items. An instance is given by a set E of n items and a set of m clients, where each c...
Given a graph with a source and a sink node, the NP–hard maximum k–splittable flow (MkSF) problem is to find a flow of maximum value with a flow decomposition using at most...
The Swath Segment Selection Problem (SSSP) is an NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem arising in the context of planning and scheduling satellite operations. It was defined ...

In this paper we present an algorithm for generating quadratic assignment problem (QAP) instances with known provably optimal solution. The flow matrix of such instances is constru...
We introduce a gain-scaling technique for the generalized maximum ow problem. Using this technique, we present three simple and intuitive polynomial-time combinatorialalgorithms fo...
