  2. List of unsolved problems in computer science - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unsolved_problems...

    NC = P problem The P vs NP problem is a major unsolved question in computer science that asks whether every problem whose solution can be quickly verified by a computer (NP) can also be quickly solved by a computer (P). This question has profound implications for fields such as cryptography, algorithm design, and computational theory. [1]

    When data arrives at channel A or B, tokens are placed into places FIFO A and FIFO B respectively. The transitions of the Petri net are associated with the respective I/O operations and computation. When the data has been written to channel C, PE resource is filled with its initial marking again allowing new data to be read.

  4. Assignment problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assignment_problem

    This is an unbalanced assignment problem. One way to solve it is to invent a fourth dummy task, perhaps called "sitting still doing nothing", with a cost of 0 for the taxi assigned to it. This reduces the problem to a balanced assignment problem, which can then be solved in the usual way and still give the best solution to the problem.

    The nurse scheduling problem where a solution is an assignment of nurses to shifts which satisfies all established constraints; The k-medoid clustering problem and other related facility location problems for which local search offers the best known approximation ratios from a worst-case perspective

  6. NP-hardness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NP-hardness

    There are decision problems that are NP-hard but not NP-complete such as the halting problem. That is the problem which asks "given a program and its input, will it run forever?" That is a yes/no question and so is a decision problem. It is easy to prove that the halting problem is NP-hard but not NP-complete.

  7. Generalized assignment problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalized_assignment_problem

    In the special case in which all the agents' budgets and all tasks' costs are equal to 1, this problem reduces to the assignment problem. When the costs and profits of all tasks do not vary between different agents, this problem reduces to the multiple knapsack problem. If there is a single agent, then, this problem reduces to the knapsack problem.

  8. SAT solver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAT_solver

    In computer science and formal methods, a SAT solver is a computer program which aims to solve the Boolean satisfiability problem (SAT). On input a formula over Boolean variables, such as "(x or y) and (x or not y)", a SAT solver outputs whether the formula is satisfiable, meaning that there are possible values of x and y which make the formula true, or unsatisfiable, meaning that there are no ...

  9. Group method of data handling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_method_of_data_handling

    Basic Combinatorial algorithm makes the following steps: Divides data sample at least into two samples A and B. Generates subsamples from A according to partial models with steadily increasing complexity. Estimates coefficients of partial models at each layer of models complexity. Calculates value of external criterion for models on sample B.
