We propose heuristics for visibility coverage of a polygon with the fewest point guards. This optimal coverage problem, often called the “art gallery problem”, is known to be ...
This paper presents a dynamic (or multi-period) hub location problem. It proposes a branch-and-bound algorithm that uses a Lagrangean relaxation to obtain lower and upper bounds a...
Abstract. Classical network flow theory allows decomposition of flow into several chunks of arbitrary sizes traveling through the network on different paths. In the first part ...
We propose the recursive grid layout scheme for deriving efficient layouts of a variety of hierarchical networks and computing upper bounds on the VLSI area of general hierarchica...

In this paper, we give the first constant-approximations for a number of layered network design problems. We begin by modeling hierarchical caching, where caches are placed in la...
