Borodin, Nielsen and Rackoff [5] proposed a framework for ing the main properties of greedy-like algorithms with emphasis on scheduling problems, and Davis and Impagliazzo [6] ext...
The idea of active networks has been emerged in recent years to increase the processing power inside the network. The intermediate nodes such as routers will be able to host mobile...
The problem of interest is covering a given point set with homothetic copies of several convex containers C1,...,Ck, while the objective is to minimize the maximum over the dilatat...
Stochastic optimization problems attempt to model uncertainty in the data by assuming that (part of) the input is specified in terms of a probability distribution. We consider the...
Let P be a set of n points in R3 . The 2-center problem for P is to find two congruent balls of the minimum radius whose union covers P. We present two randomized algorithms for ...
