We study the dynamic bin packing problem introduced by Coffman, Garey and Johnson. This problem is a generalization of the bin packing problem in which items may arrive and depart...

We study the complexity of some computational problems on finite black-box rings whose elements are encoded as strings of a given length and the ring operations are performed by a ...
Many real-life scheduling, routing and location problems can be formulated as combinatorial optimization problems whose goal is to find a linear layout of an input graph in such a ...
We consider the problem of simplifying a triangle mesh using edge contractions, under the restriction that the resulting vertices must be a subset of the input set. That is, contr...

Abstract. While the complexity of min-max and min-max regret versions of most classical combinatorial optimization problems has been thoroughly investigated, there are very few stu...

We consider the problem of reconciling gene trees with a species tree based on the widely accepted Gene Duplication model from Goodman et al. Current algorithms that solve this pro...
The problem of sorting a signed permutation by reversals is inspired by genome rearrangements in computational molecular biology. Given two genomes represented as two signed permut...
The problem of comparing two sequences A and B to determine their similarity is one of the fundamental problems in pattern matching. A challenging, basic variation of the sequence...
