We consider a problem faced by train companies: How can trains be assigned to satisfy scheduled routes in a cost efficient way? Currently, many railway companies create solutions b...
Competent Genetic Algorithms can efficiently address problems in which the linkage between variables is limited to a small order k. Problems with higher order dependencies can onl...

In this paper we consider the complexity of several problems involving finite algebraic structures. Given finite algebras A and B, these problems ask the following. (1) Do A and B ...
Abstract. The problem of testing membership in the subset of the natural numbers produced at the output gate of a {∪, ∩,− , +, ×} combinational circuit is shown to capture a...
We study the parameterized complexity of several minimum label graph problems, in which we are given an undirected graph whose edges are labeled, and a property Π, and we are ask...
