Exact Algorithms for the Maximum Planar Subgraph Problem: New Models and Experiments
Given a graph G, the NP-hard Maximum Planar Subgraph problem asks for a planar subgraph of G with the maximum number of edges. The only known non-trivial exact algorithm utilizes Kuratowski\u27s famous planarity criterion and can be formulated as an integer linear program (ILP) or a pseudo-boolean satisfiability problem (PBS). We examine three alternative characterizations of planarity regarding their applicability to model maximum planar subgraphs. For each, we consider both ILP and PBS variants, investigate diverse formulation aspects, and evaluate their practical performance
Kreuzungen in Cluster-Level-Graphen
Clustered graphs are an enhanced graph model with a recursive clustering of the vertices according to a given nesting relation. This prime technique for expressing coherence of certain parts of the graph is used in many applications, such as biochemical pathways and UML class diagrams. For directed clustered graphs usually level drawings are used, leading to clustered level graphs. In this thesis we analyze the interrelation of clusters and levels and their influence on edge crossings and cluster/edge crossings.Cluster-Graphen sind ein erweitertes Graph-Modell mit einem rekursiven Clustering der Knoten entsprechend einer gegebenen Inklusionsrelation. Diese bedeutende Technik um Zusammengehörigkeit bestimmter Teile des Graphen auszudrücken wird in vielen Anwendungen benutzt, etwa biochemischen Reaktionsnetzen oder UML Klassendiagrammen. Für gerichtete Cluster-Graphen werden üblicherweise Level-Zeichnungen verwendet, was zu Cluster-Level-Graphen führt. Diese Arbeit analysiert den Zusammenhang zwischen Clustern und Level und deren Auswirkungen auf Kantenkreuzungen und Cluster/Kanten-Kreuzungen
Alternative Route Techniques and their Applications to the Stochastics on-time Arrival Problem
This thesis takes a close look at a wide range of different techniques for the computation of alternative routes on the two most popular speed-up techniques currently in use. From the standpoint of an algorithm engineer, we explore how to exploit the different techniques for their full potential
