We present an NC approximation algorithm for the weighted matching problem in graphs with an approximation ratio of (1 - ). This improves the previously best approximation ratio of...
Fischer proposes in [4] a sequential algorithm to compute a minimum weight spanning tree of maximum degree at most b + logb n in time O n4+1/ln b for any constant b > 1, where ...
Maximum Boolean satisfiability (max-SAT) is the optimization counterpart of Boolean satisfiability (SAT), in which a variable assignment is sought to satisfy the maximum number of...
We study the problem of orienting the edges of a weighted graph such that the maximum weighted outdegree of vertices is minimized. This problem, which has applications in the guar...
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...
