✦ Synopsis
A set partition technique that is useful for identifying wires in cables can be recast in the language of 0 1 matrices, thereby resolving an open problem stated by R. L. Graham in Volume 1 of this journal. The proof involves a construction of 0 1 matrices having row and column sums without gaps.

The bottleneck graph partition problem is to partition the nodes of a graph into two equally sized sets, so that the maximum edge weight in the cut separating the two sets is minimum. Whereas the graph partition problem, where the sum of the edge weights in the cut is to be minimized, is NP-hard, th
The bottleneck graph partition problem consists of partitioning the vertices of an undirected edge-weighted graph into two equally sized sets such that the maximum edge weight in the cut separating the two sets becomes minimum. In this short note, we present an optimum algorithm for this problem wit
