Abstract-- Answering approximate queries on string collections is important in applications such as data cleaning, query relaxation, and spell checking, where inconsistencies and e...
Abstract. In this paper we present the new data structure Colored Sector Search Tree (CSST ) for solving the Nearest-Foreign-Neighbor Query Problem (NFNQP ): Given a set S of n col...

Abstract. With graph pattern matching the field of graph transformation (GT) includes an NP-complete subtask. But for real-life applications it is essential that graph pattern mat...
Abstract. A Greedy Randomized Adaptive Search Procedure (GRASP) is a randomized heuristic that has produced high quality solutions for a wide range of combinatorial optimization pr...
