Abstract
A c-interval is the disjoint union of c intervals over N. The C-INTERVAL MULTICOVER problem is the special case of SET MULTICOVER where all sets available for covering are c-intervals. We strengthen known APX-hardness results for C-INTERVAL MULTICOVER, show W[1]-hardness when parameterized by the solution size, and present fixed-parameter algorithms for alternative parameterizations.
