We consider the facility location problem where each facility can serve at most U clients. We analyze a local search algorithm for this problem which uses only the operations of ad...

A novel stochastic searching scheme based on the Monte Carlo optimization is presented for polygonal approximation (PA) problem. We propose to combine the split-and-merge based lo...
We study the problem of maximizing the lifetime of a sensor network assigned to monitor a given area. Our main result is a linear time dual approximation algorithm that comes arbit...
We consider the maximum covering problem, a combinatorial optimization problem that arises in many facility location problems. In this problem, a potential facility site covers a s...
We investigate the search properties of pre-evolutionary random catalytic reaction networks, where reactions might be reversible, and replication is not taken for granted. Since it...
