Approximation Algorithms for Non-Uniform Buy-at-Bulk Network Design
We consider approximation algorithms for non-uniform buy-at-bulk network design problems. The first nontrivial approximation algorithm for this problem is due to Charikar and Kar...

Efficient Algorithms for Approximating Polygonal Chains
We consider the problem of approximating a polygonal chain C by another polygonal chain C whose vertices are constrained to be a subset of the set of vertices of C. The goal is to ...

Improved approximation algorithms for multidimensional bin packing problems
In this paper we introduce a new general framework for set covering problems, based on the combination of randomized rounding of the (near-)optimal solution of the Linear Programm...
