Ecosystem-related observations from remote sensors on satellites offer huge potential for understanding the location and extent of global land cover change. This paper presents a c...
Abstract This paper gives poly-logarithmic-round, distributed δ-approximation algorithms for covering problems with submodular cost and monotone covering constraints (Submodular-c...
In this paper we initiate the study of a "dynamic" variant of the classical Vertex Cover problem, the Eternal Vertex Cover problem introduced by Klostermeyer and Mynhard...

We describe sequential and parallel algorithms that approximately solve linear programs with no negative coefficients (a.k.a. mixed packing and covering problems). For explicitly ...
In the last 25 years approximation algorithms for discrete optimization problems have been in the center of research in the fields of mathematical programming and computer science...
