This paper deals with problems which fall into the domain of selfish scheduling: a protocol is in charge of building a schedule for a set of tasks without directly knowing their l...
Tandem repeated regions are closely related to some genetic diseases in human beings. Once a region containing pseudo-periodic repeats is found, it is interesting to study the his...
In this paper a deterministic algorithm for the length reduction problem is presented. This algorithm enables a new tool for performing fast convolution in sparse data. While the ...
In phylogenetic analysis, a standard problem is to approximate a given metric by an additive metric. Here it is shown that, given a metric D defined on some finite set X and a non...
We consider plane trees whose vertices are given labels from the set {1, 2, . . . , k} in such a way that the sum of the labels along any edge is at most k + 1; it turns out that ...
