Distributed algorithms for covering, packing and maximum weighted matching
Abstract This paper gives poly-logarithmic-round, distributed δ-approximation algorithms for covering problems with submodular cost and monotone covering constraints (Submodular-c...

Packing: Scheduling, Embedding, and Approximating Metrics
Abstract. Many problems in computer science are related to scheduling problems or embedding problems. Therefore it is an interesting topic to find efficient (approximation) algori...

Online Primal-Dual Algorithms for Covering and Packing Problems
We study a wide range of online covering and packing optimization problems. In an online covering problem a linear cost function is known in advance, but the linear constraints th...

Weighted Geometric Set Cover via Quasi-Uniform Sampling
There has been much progress on geometric set cover problems, but most known techniques only apply to the unweighted setting. For the weighted setting, very few results are known ...
