Popis: Let M = ( T , C , P ) be a security model, where T is a rooted tree, C is a multiset of costs and P is a multiset of prizes and let ( T , c , p ) be a security system, where c and p are bijections of costs and prizes. The problems of computing an optimal attack on a security system and of determining an edge e ∈ E ( T ) such that the maximum sum of prizes obtained from an optimal attack in ( T , c , p ) is minimized when c ( e ) = ∞ are considered. An O ( G 2 n ) -time algorithm to compute an optimal attack as well as an O ( G 2 n 2 ) -time algorithm to determine such an edge are given, in addition to a (1-ϵ) FPTAS with the time bound O ( 1 ϵ 2 n 3 log ⁡ G ) and a (1+ϵ) FPTAS with the time bound O ( 1 ϵ 2 n 4 log ⁡ G ) for the first and second problems, respectively.
