Implementation of Approximation Algorithms for the Multicast Congestion Problem
Abstract. We implement the approximation algorithm for the multicast congestion problem in communication networks in [14] based on the fast approximation algorithm for packing prob...

A tight bound on approximating arbitrary metrics by tree metrics
In this paper, we show that any n point metric space can be embedded into a distribution over dominating tree metrics such that the expected stretch of any edge is O(log n). This ...

Content distribution by multiple multicast trees and intersession cooperation: Optimal algorithms and approximations
—The paper addresses the problem of massive content distribution in the network where multiple sessions coexist. In the traditional approaches, the sessions form separate overlay...

Degree Bounded Network Design with Metric Costs
Given a complete undirected graph, a cost function on edges and a degree bound B, the degree bounded network design problem is to find a minimum cost simple subgraph with maximum...
