Packing Edge Disjoint Triangles: A Parameterized View
The problem of packing k edge-disjoint triangles in a graph has been thoroughly studied both in the classical complexity and the approximation fields and it has a wide range of ap...

Assigning Sensors to Missions with Demands
We introduce Semi-Matching with Demands (SMD), which models a certain problem in sensor networks of assigning individual sensors to sensing tasks. If there are multiple sensing tas...

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 ...

Bincoloring
We introduce a new problem that was motivated by a (more complicated) problem arising in a robotized assembly environment. The bin coloring problem is to pack unit size colored it...

Facility location: distributed approximation
In this paper, we initiate the study of the approximability of the facility location problem in a distributed setting. In particular, we explore a trade-off between the amount of...
