Strengthening Landmark Heuristics via Hitting Sets
The landmark cut heuristic is perhaps the strongest known polytime admissible approximation of the optimal delete relaxation heuristic h+ . Equipped with this heuristic, a best-fir...

Message Batching in Wireless Sensor Networks - A Perturbation Analysis Approach
Abstract-- We address the problem of batching messages generated at nodes of a sensor network for the purpose of reducing communication energy at the expense of added latency. We f...

Improved bounds on sorting by length-weighted reversals
We study the problem of sorting binary sequences and permutations by length-weighted reversals. We consider a wide class of cost functions, namely f( ) = for all 0, where is the...
