Every chordal graph G can be represented as the intersection graph of a collection of subtrees of a host tree, the so-called tree model of G. The leafage l(G) of a connected chorda...
We consider online preemptive scheduling of jobs, arriving one by one, on m identical parallel machines. A buffer of a fixed size K > 0, which assists in partial reordering of...
Let (S, d) be a finite metric space, where each element p ∈ S has a non-negative weight w(p). We study spanners for the set S with respect to weighted distance function dw, wher...

Sponsored search auctions provide a marketplace where advertisers can bid for millions of advertising opportunities to promote their products. The main difficulty facing the adver...
The interval graph for a set of intervals on a line consists of one vertex for each interval, and an edge for each intersecting pair of intervals. A probe interval graph is a varia...
A familiar quandary arises when there are several possible alternatives for the solution of a problem, but no way of knowing which, if any, are viable for a particular problem inst...
A hash function h, i.e., a function from the set U of all keys to the range range [m] = {0, . . . , m − 1} is called a perfect hash function (PHF) for a subset S ⊆ U of size n ...

Given n potential oil locations, where each has oil at a certain depth, we seek good trade-offs between the number of oil sources found and the total amount of drilling performed. ...
