We first show that for any bipartite graph H with at most five vertices, there exists an on-line competitive algorithm for the class of H-free bipartite graphs. We then analyze th...
We show that the mixed search number and the linear-width of interval graphs and of split graphs can be computed in linear time and in polynomial time, respectively.
In the course allocation problem, a university administrator seeks to efficiently and fairly allocate schedules of over-demanded courses to students with heterogeneous preferences...
Abstract. In this paper we present a novel approach to solving Constraint Satisfaction Problems whose constraint graphs are highly clustered and the graph of clusters is close to b...
— Ant-colony optimization (ACO) is a popular swarm intelligence metaheuristic scheme that can be applied to almost any optimization problem. In this paper, we address a performan...
