An Approximation Algorithm for Computing a Parsimonious First Speciation in the Gene Duplication Model
We consider the following problem: given a forest of gene family trees on a set of genomes, find a first speciation which splits these genomes into two subsets and minimizes the ...

Parallel Machine Scheduling Problems with Controllable Processing Times
We consider the problem of scheduling n independent jobs on m identical machines that operate in parallel. Each job has a controllable processing time. The fact that the jobs have...

A Constant-Approximate Feasibility Test for Multiprocessor Real-Time Scheduling
We devise the first constant-approximate feasibility test for sporadic multiprocessor real-time scheduling. We give an algorithm that, given a task system and > 0, correctly de...
