Abstract: The problem of finding a center string that is `close' to every given string arises in
computational molecular biology and coding theory. This problem has two versions:
the Closest String problem and the Closest Substring problem. Given a set of strings
S = fs 1 ; s 2 ; : : : ; s n g, each of length m, the Closest String problem is to find the smallest
d and a string s of length m which is within Hamming distance d to each s i 2 S. This
problem comes from coding theory when we are looking for ... (Update)
