A quasi-PTAS for unsplittable flow on line graphs
We study the Unsplittable Flow Problem (UFP) on a line graph, focusing on the long-standing open question of whether the problem is APX-hard. We describe a deterministic quasi-pol...

Maintaining a Large Matching or a Small Vertex Cover
We consider the problem of maintaining a large matching or a small vertex cover in a dynamically changing graph. Each update to the graph is either an edge deletion or an edge ins...

On the Complexity of the Asymmetric VPN Problem
We give the first constant factor approximation algorithm for the asymmetric Virtual Private Network (Vpn) problem with arbitrary concave costs. We even show the stronger result, ...

Minimizing Stall Time in Single and Parallel Disk Systems
We study integrated prefetching and caching problems following the work of Cao et. al. [3] and Kimbrel and Karlin [13]. Cao et. al. and Kimbrel and Karlin gave approximation algor...

CORL: A Continuous-state Offset-dynamics Reinforcement Learner
Continuous state spaces and stochastic, switching dynamics characterize a number of rich, realworld domains, such as robot navigation across varying terrain. We describe a reinfor...
