Weighted Coloring: Further Complexity and Approximability Results
Given a vertex-weighted graph G = (V, E; w), w(v) ≥ 0 for any v ∈ V , we consider a weighted version of the coloring problem which consists in finding a partition S = (S1, . ...

New Benchmark Instances for the QAP and the Experimental Analysis of Algorithms
Abstract. The quadratic assignment problem arises in a variety of practical settings. It is known to be among the hardest combinatorial problems for exact algorithms. Therefore, a ...

Preference Elicitation and Query Learning
Abstract. In this paper we initiate an exploration of relationships between “preference elicitation”, a learning-style problem that arises in combinatorial auctions, and the pr...

Parameterized Complexity of Finding Subgraphs with Hereditary Properties
We consider the parameterized complexity of the following problem under the framework introduced by Downey and Fellows[4]: Given a graph G, an integer parameter k and a non-trivial...

Multi-coloring Trees
Scheduling jobs with pairwise conflicts is modeled by the graph multicoloring problem. It occurs in two versions: in the preemptive case, each vertex may get any set of colors, w...
