This volume presents topics addressed at the working group meeting and workshop on Computer-generated Conjectures from Graph Theoretic and Chemical Databases held at Rutgers University (Piscataway, NJ). The events brought together theoreticians and practitioners working in graph theory and chemistry to share ideas and to set an agenda for future ...
This volume is the result of the Third DIMACS Implementation Challenge that was conducted as part of the 1993-1994 Special Year on Parallel Algorithms. The Implementation Challenge was formulated in order to provide a forum for a concerted effort to study effective algorithms for combinatorial problems and to investigate opportunities for massive ...
This volume contains selected papers from the DIMACS Workshop on Logic and Random Structures held in November 1995. The workshop was a major event of the DIMACS Special Year on Logic and Algorithms. The central theme was the relationship between logic and probabilistic techniques in the study of finite structures. In the last several years, this ...
Studies of the spread and containment of disease rely at heart on a variety of mathematical and computational techniques. This collection aims to introduce the fundamentals of epidemiology and to showcase contemporary work using discrete mathematical techniques. Introductory chapters explain the fundamental concepts of epidemiology, the basic ...
This volume features highlights from the DIMACS Special Year on 'Mathematical Support for Molecular Biology'. Top researchers presented both new research results and comprehensive overviews on the use of mathematics (especially discrete mathematics) and theoretical computer science in molecular biology. The book provides a unique 'snapshot' of ...
This volume contains the proceedings of the Workshop on On-line Algorithms held at the DIMACS Center at Rutgers University in February 1991. Presenting results in the theory of on-line algorithms, the articles discuss a broad range of problems. Most of the papers are based on competitive (worst-case) analysis of on-line algorithms, but some papers ...
The mathematical approach to the study of hierarchies presents the theoretical basis for many important areas of current scientific investigation. Biology has benefited from this research and has also stimulated the mathematical study of hierarchies. This collection presents papers devoted to theoretical, algorithmical, and application issues ...
The fledgling field of DNA computers began in 1994 when Leonard Adleman surprised the scientific community by using DNA molecules, protein enzymes, and chemicals to solve an instance of a hard computational problem. This volume presents results from the second annual meeting on DNA computers held at Princeton only one and one-half years after ...
Discrete mathematics stands among the leading disciplines of mathematics and theoretical computer science. This is due primarily to its increasing role in university curricula and its growing importance in applications ranging from optimization to molecular biology. An inaugural conference was held cooperatively by DIMATIA and DIMACS to focus on ...
Consensus methods developed in the context of voting, decision making, and other areas of the social and behavioral sciences have a variety of applications in the biological sciences, originally in taxonomy and evolutionary biology, and more recently in molecular biology. Typically, several alternatives (such as alternative phylogenetic trees, ...
