Greedy in Approximation Algorithms
The objective of this paper is to characterize classes of problems for which a greedy algorithm finds solutions provably close to optimum. To that end, we introduce the notion of k...

A Parallel Approximation Algorithm for the Weighted Maximum Matching Problem
Abstract. We consider the problem of computing a weighted edge matching in a large graph using a parallel algorithm. This problem has application in several areas of combinatorial ...

Approximating and Intersecting Surfaces from Points
Point sets become an increasingly popular shape representation. Most shape processing and rendering tasks require the approximation of a continuous surface from the point data. We...

Fast distributed approximation algorithms for vertex cover and set cover in anonymous networks
We present a distributed algorithm that finds a maximal edge packing in O(∆ + log∗ W) synchronous communication rounds in a weighted graph, independent of the number of nodes...

Iterative Rounding for Multi-Objective Optimization Problems
In this paper we show that iterative rounding is a powerful and flexible tool in the design of approximation algorithms for multiobjective optimization problems. We illustrate tha...
