Deciding whether an arbitrary graph admits a VLSI layout with unit-length edges is NP-complete [1], even when restricted to binary trees [7]. However, for certain graphs, the prob...
Trading decisions in financial markets can be supported by the use of online algorithms. We evaluate the empirical performance of a threat-based online algorithm and compare it to...
Earliest arrival flows model a central aspect of evacuation planning: In a dangerous situation, as many individuals as possible should be rescued at any point in time. Unfortunate...
Verifying that a piece of software has no bugs means proving that it has certain desired properties, such as an array index not taking values outside certain Abstract interpretati...
We consider a generalization of the Prize Collecting Steiner Tree Problem on a graph with special redundancy requirements on a subset of the customer nodes suitable to model a rea...
We propose a 0/1 integer programming model to tackle the office space allocation (OSA) problem which refers to assigning room space to a set of entities (people, machines, roles, ...
The performance of Branch-and-Bound algorithms is severely impaired by the presence of symmetric optima in a given problem. We describe a method for the automatic detection of for...
Galvin solved the Dinitz conjecture by proving that bipartite graphs are -edge-choosable. We employ Galvin's method to show some further list edgecolouring properties of bipa...
