We propose a greedy algorithm which, given a hypergraph H and a positive integer k, produces a hypertree decomposition of width less than or equal to 3k −1, or determines that H...
This work focuses on the basic stochastic decomposition (SD) algorithm of Higle and Sen [J.L. Higle, S. Sen, Stochastic Decomposition, Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1996] for two-st...
We combine mixed integer linear programming (MILP) and constraint programming (CP) to solve an important class of planning and scheduling problems. Tasks are allocated to faciliti...
Abstract. Since in general it is NP-hard to solve the minimum dominating set problem even approximatively, a lot of work has been dedicated to central and distributed approximation...
Lucas chains are a special type of addition chains satisfying an extra condition: for the representation ak = aj + ai of each element ak in the chain, the difference aj - ai must a...
