The Cluster Editing problem is defined as follows: Given an undirected, loopless graph, we want to find a set of edge modifications (insertions and deletions) of minimum cardinality, such that the modified graph consists of disjoint cliques.We present empirical results for this problem using exact methods from fixed-parameter algorithmics and linear programming. We investigate parameter-independent data reduction methods and find that effective preprocessing is possible if the number of edge modifications k is smaller than some multiple of vertical bar V vertical bar , where V is the vertex set of the input graph. In particular, combining parameter-dependent data reduction with lower and upper bounds we can effectively reduce graphs satisfying k
