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...
We propose a fast methodology for encoding graphs with information-theoretically minimum numbers of bits. Specifically, a graph with property π is called a π-graph. If π satis...
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...
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...
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...
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...
