A fixed-parameter tractability result for multicommodity demand flow in trees
We study an NP-hard (and MaxSNP-hard) problem in trees--Multicommodity Demand Flow--dealing with demand flows between pairs of nodes and trying to maximize the value of the routed...

On the fixed-parameter tractability of parameterized model-checking problems
In this note, we show, through the use of examples, how generic results for proving fixed-parameter tractability which apply to restricted classes of structures can sometimes be m...

Scalable Parallel Algorithms for FPT Problems
Algorithmic methods based on the theory of fixed-parameter tractability are combined with powerful computational platforms to launch systematic attacks on combinatorial problems o...
