Abstract. We give a (ln n + 1)-approximation for the decision tree (DT) problem. An instance of DT is a set of m binary tests T = (T1, . . . , Tm) and a set of n items X = (X1, . ....
The online frequency allocation problem for cellular networks has been well studied in these years. Given a mobile telephone network, whose geographical coverage area is divided i...
