Simple Algorithms for a Weighted Interval Selection Problem
Given a set of jobs, each consisting of a number of weighted intervals on the real line, and a number m of machines, we study the problem of selecting a maximum weight subset of th...

The Greedy Algorithm for the Minimum Common String Partition Problem
In the Minimum Common String Partition problem (MCSP) we are given two strings on input, and we wish to partition them into the same collection of substrings, minimizing the numbe...

The Complexity of Finding Subgraphs Whose Matching Number Equals the Vertex Cover Number
The class of graphs where the size of a minimum vertex cover equals that of a maximum matching is known as K¨onig-Egerv´ary graphs. K¨onig-Egerv´ary graphs have been studied ex...

A new approximation algorithm for the multilevel facility location problem
In this paper we propose a new integer programming formulation for the multilevel facility location problem and a novel 3-approximation algorithm based on LP rounding. The linear ...
