Sammanfattning
The problem studied in this paper is a special case of set membership testing. This
problem is defined as storing a single element from a set of m elements, represented
as a bit string of optimal length, and answering whether a queried element is the
stored one without reading all the stored bits. Damaschke has shown that finding lcube
dominating sets in hypercubes is equivalent to finding schemes for membership
testing. The specific schemes that he found only serve as proof-of-concept and the
problem of optimal schemes is an open question. Our main contribution is numerical
improvements on these schemes. The new schemes have primarily been found using
the low-dimensional (grid) relaxation that Damaschke introduced, and a branchand-
bound search approach.
