In particular I am studying heuristics for the Map Labeling Problem as well as algorithms for variations of this problem. This problem consists of placing a set of rectangular labels on a given set of points in the plane, each point associated with a rectangular label, such that the labels do not intersect each other. This problem has applications in geographical information systems (GIS), computer networks and integrated circuit design. The variations that I have been working allows the rectangular labels to be elastic or to slide.
