[comp.theory] NP-completeness question

wk@reef.cis.ufl.edu (Chip Klostermeyer) (06/20/91)

I would appreciate any references to a pseudo-polynomial time algorithm
or a proof of NP-completeness in the strong sense for the zero-one
integer programming problem. 
Also, any references to an algorithm for finding lower bounds for
solutions to zero-one integer programming problems would be welcome.

E-mail to wk@reef.cis.ufl.edu
I will summarize to net.

Thanks

More NP-complete problems,

I have developed a so-called "2 1/2-dimensional systolic array" which consists
of a two tightly coupled mesh arrays. By allowing each cell to communicate
with five neighbouring cells (i.e. four on the same layer and one on the 
adjacent layer), I have developed a reconfiguration scheme to recover a
defected array. Later on, I found that the connectivity constraint will have
to be relaxed further, i.e. diagonal connections between cells are allowed,
the resultant array gives a high percentage of fault tolerance. Now, the
question is whether it is a NP-complete problem to simulation this 
reconfigurable array? I will be gratefull to hear your comments. Thanks
