Many algorithms for motif finding that are commonly used in bioinformatics start by sampling r potential motif occurrences from n input sequences. The motif is derived from these s...
The Range-Minimum-Query-Problem is to preprocess an array such that the position of the minimum element between two specified indices can be obtained efficiently. We present a dire...
We study an on-line broadcast scheduling problem in which requests have deadlines, and the objective is to maximize the weighted throughput, i.e., the weighted total length of the ...

In this paper we present approximation results for the class constrained bin packing problem that has applications to Video-on-Demand Systems. In this problem we are given bins of...
We consider the problems of straightening polygonal trees and convexifying polygons by continuous motions such that rigid edges can rotate around vertex joints and no edge crossing...
In this paper we have presented new algorithms to handle the pattern matching problem where the pattern can contain variable length gaps. Given a pattern P with variable length gap...

: Inferring graphs from path frequency has been studied as an important problem which has a potential application to drug design and elucidation of chemical structures. Given a mul...
We determine the values of the acyclic chromatic index of a class of graphs referred to as d-dimensional partial tori. These are graphs which can be expressed as the cartesian prod...
