Approximating node connectivity problems via set covers
Given a graph (directed or undirected) with costs on the edges, and an integer k, we consider the problem of nding a k-node connected spanning subgraph of minimum cost. For the ge...

Robust and Efficient Covering of Unknown Continuous Domains with Simple, Ant-Like A(ge)nts
We propose a new `Mark-Ant-Walk' algorithm for robust and efficient covering of continuous domains by ant-like robots with very limited capabilities. The robots can mark plac...

Constraint-based local search for solving non-simple paths problems on graphs: application to the routing for network covering p
Routing problems have been considered as central problems in the fields of transportation, distribution and logistics. LS(Graph) is a generic framework allowing to model and solve...

Combinatorial Algorithms for Data Migration to Minimize Average Completion Time
The data migration problem is to compute an efficient plan for moving data stored on devices in a network from one configuration to another. It is modeled by a transfer graph, wher...

Local Graph Partitions for Approximation and Testing
—We introduce a new tool for approximation and testing algorithms called partitioning oracles. We develop methods for constructing them for any class of bounded-degree graphs wit...
