An Integer Programming Formulation of the Minimum Common String Partition Problem.
We consider the problem of finding a minimum common string partition (MCSP) of two strings, which is an NP-hard problem.The MCSP MEN SWEATSHIRT problem is closely related to genome comparison and rearrangement, an important field in Computational Biology.In this paper, we map the MCSP problem into a graph applying a prior technique and using this g
