Improved Approximation Algorithms for Metric Maximum ATSP and Maximum 3-Cycle Cover Problems
We consider an APX-hard variant (∆-Max-ATSP) and an APX-hard relaxation (Max-3-DCC) of the classical traveling salesman problem. We present a 31 40-approximation algorithm for â...

Improved Fixed-Parameter Algorithms for Two Feedback Set Problems
Abstract. Settling a ten years open question, we show that the NPcomplete Feedback Vertex Set problem is deterministically solvable in O(ck ·m) time, where m denotes the number of...

Improved Thumbprint and Its Application for Intrusion Detection
This paper proposes RTT-thumbprint to traceback intruders, and to detect stepping-stone intrusion; RTT-thumbprint is a sequence of timestamp pairs of a send packet and its correspo...
