In the Survivable Network Design Problem (SNDP) the goal is to find a minimum cost subset of edges that satisfies a given set of pairwise connectivity requirements among the ver...
In the Steiner Network problem we are given a graph with edge-costs and connectivity requirements between node pairs , . The goal is to find a minimum-cost subgraph of that contain...

As the Internet population grows, not only computers but household electric appliances, such as VCRs and a refrigerators, will become connected to a network. The demand of connecti...
We propose a novel a framework for deriving approximations for intractable probabilistic models. This framework is based on a free energy (negative log marginal likelihood) and ca...
For a connected graph, representing a sensor network, distributed algorithms for the Set Covering Problem can be employed to construct reasonably small subsets of the nodes, calle...
