We give a polynomial approximation scheme for the problem of scheduling on uniformly related parallel machines for a large class of objective functions that depend only on the mac...
We revisit classical geometric search problems under the assumption of rational coordinates. Our main result is a tight bound for point separation, ie, to determine whether n given...
Abstract. This paper addresses the informational asymmetry for constructing an ultrametric evolutionary tree from upper and lower bounds on pairwise distances between n given speci...
A critical step in all quartet methods for constructing evolutionary trees is the inference of the topology for each set of four sequences (i.e. quartet). It is a well–known fact...

This paper deals with the on-line allocation of shared data objects to the local memory modules of the nodes in a network. We assume that the data is organized in indivisible objec...
