A Robust PTAS for Machine Covering and Packing
Abstract. Minimizing the makespan or maximizing the minimum machine load are two of the most important and fundamental parallel machine scheduling problems. In an online scenario, ...

Tight Results on Minimum Entropy Set Cover
In the minimum entropy set cover problem, one is given a collection of k sets which collectively cover an n-element ground set. A feasible solution of the problem is a partition o...

Asymmetric Binary Covering Codes
An asymmetric binary covering code of length n and radius R is a subset C of the n-cube Qn such that every vector x Qn can be obtained from some vector c C by changing at most R...

Tracking MUSes and Strict Inconsistent Covers
In this paper, a new heuristic-based approach is introduced to extract minimally unsatisfiable subformulas (in short, MUSes) of SAT instances. It is shown that it often outperforms...

The Covert Set-Cover Problem with Application to Network Discovery
We address a version of the set-cover problem where we do not know the sets initially (and hence referred to as covert) but we can query an element to find out which sets contain ...
