    • Warren, Jeffrey Scott (2009-05-15)
      Methods are described that implement a branch-and-price decomposition approach to solve the maximum weight independent set (MWIS) problem. The approach is first described by Warrier et. al, and herein our contributions to ...
    • Trukhanov, Svyatoslav (2009-05-15)
      This dissertation considers a class of closely related NP-hard otpimization problems on graphs that arise in many important applications, including network-based data mining, analysis of the stock market, social networks, ...
    • Buchanan, Austin Loyd (2015-07-10)
      In this dissertation, we study challenging discrete optimization problems from the perspective of parameterized complexity. The usefulness of this type of analysis is twofold. First, it can lead to efficient algorithms for ...
