Given a general graph G, a fundamental problem is to find a spanning tree H that best approximates G by some measure. Often this measure is some combination of the congestion and...
We show that for every n-point metric space M and positive integer k, there exists a spanning tree T with unweighted diameter O(k) and weight w(T) = O(k · n1/k ) · w(MST(M)), an...
We consider multiple description (MD) coding for the Gaussian source with K descriptions under the symmetric meansquared error (MSE) distortion constraints, and provide an approxim...
This paper addresses the problem of estimating lower bounds on the power consumption in scheduled data flow graphs with a fixed number of allocated resources prior to binding. T...

This paper is a study of the car sequencing problem, when feature spacing constraints are soft and colors of vehicles are taken into account. Both pseudo-polynomial algorithms and ...
