Efficient Approximation Algorithms for Repairing Inconsistent Databases
We consider the problem of repairing a database that is inconsistent wrt a set of integrity constraints by updating numerical values. In particular, we concentrate on denial integ...

Approximation Bounds for a General Class of Precedence Constrained Parallel Machine Scheduling Problems
Abstract. A well studied and difficult class of scheduling problems concerns parallel machines and precedence constraints. In order to model more realistic situations, we consider ...

On Approximating an Implicit Cover Problem in Biology
Abstract. In an implicit combinatorial optimization problem, the constraints are not enumerated explicitly but rather stated implicitly through equations, other constraints or auxi...

Approximation Algorithms for Unique Games
We present a polynomial time algorithm based on semidefinite programming that, given a unique game of value 1 − O(1/ log n), satisfies a constant fraction of constraints, wher...

Approximate Solution Sampling (and Counting) on AND/OR Spaces
In this paper, we describe a new algorithm for sampling solutions from a uniform distribution over the solutions of a constraint network. Our new algorithm improves upon the Sampli...
