Minimizing the Diameter of a Network Using Shortcut Edges
We study the problem of minimizing the diameter of a graph by adding k shortcut edges, for speeding up communication in an existing network design. We develop constant-factor appro...

Horn Upper Bounds and Renaming
Abstract. We consider the problem of computing tractable approximations to CNF formulas, extending the approach of Selman and Kautz to compute the Horn-LUB to involve renaming of v...

Efficient Exact and Approximate Algorithms for the Complement of Maximal Strip Recovery
Given two genomic maps G and H represented by a sequence of n gene markers, a strip (syntenic block) is a sequence of distinct markers of length at least two which appear as subseq...
