An improved bound on the largest induced forests for triangle-free planar graphs
We proved that every planar triangle-free graph with n vertices has a subset of vertices that induces a forest of size at least (71n + 72)/128. This improves the earlier work of S...

Class constrained bin packing revisited
We study the following variant of the bin packing problem. We are given a set of items, where each item has a (non-negative) size and a color. We are also given an integer paramet...

A note on scenario reduction for two-stage stochastic programs
We extend earlier work on scenario reduction by relying directly on Fortet–Mourier metrics instead of using upper bounds given in terms of mass transportation problems. The impo...

Constrained systems with unconstrained positions
We develop methods for analyzing and constructing combined modulation/error-correctiong codes (ECC codes), in particular codes that employ some form of reversed concatenation and w...

Scheduling two parallel machines with a single server: the general case
This paper considers the problem of scheduling two-operation non-preemptable jobs on two identical semiautomatic machines. A single server is available to carry out the first (or ...

Probabilistic Analysis of the Generalised Assignment Problem
We analyse the generalised assignment problem under the assumption that all coefficients are drawn uniformly and independently from [0,1]. We show that such problems can be solved...

Natural language retrieval of grocery products
In this paper we describe modifications to a natural language grocery retrieval system, introduced in our earlier work. We also compare our system against an off-the-shelf retriev...

An Algorithm to Compute Collusion Paths
In earlier work we have formulated a collusion problem that determines whether it is possible for a set of colluders to collectively discover a target set of information, starting...
