On the Complexity of Restricted k-anonymity Problem
Abstract. One of the emerging concepts in microdata protection is kanonymity, introduced by Samarati and Sweeney. k-anonymity provides a simple and efficient approach to protect pr...

Complexity of Approximating Closest Substring Problems
The closest substring problem, where a short string is sought that minimizes the number of mismatches between it and each of a given set of strings, is a minimization problem with ...

The Complexity of Mean Flow Time Scheduling Problems with Release Times
We study the problem of preemptive scheduling n jobs with given release times on m identical parallel machines. The objective is to minimize the average flow time. We show that wh...

Parameterized Complexity of Constraint Satisfaction Problems
We prove a parameterized analog of Schaefer’s Dichotomy Theorem: we show that for every finite boolean constraint family F, deciding whether a formula containing constraints fr...
