A new approximation algorithm for the multilevel facility location problem
In this paper we propose a new integer programming formulation for the multilevel facility location problem and a novel 3-approximation algorithm based on LP rounding. The linear ...

Approximation algorithms for channel allocation problems in broadcast networks
We study two packing problems that arise in the area of dissemination-based information systems; a second theme is the study of distributed approximation algorithms. The problems c...

Faster approximation schemes for fractional multicommodity flow problems via dynamic graph algorithms
We combine the work of Garg and K¨onemann, and Fleischer with ideas from dynamic graph algorithms to obtain faster (1 − ε)-approximation schemes for various versions of the mu...

Approximation and fixed-parameter algorithms for consecutive ones submatrix problems
We develop an algorithmically useful refinement of a forbidden submatrix characterization of 0/1-matrices fulfilling the Consecutive Ones Property (C1P). This characterization ...

Approximation Algorithms for Multicommodity-Type Problems with Guarantees Independent of the Graph Size
— Linial, London and Rabinovich [16] and Aumann and Rabani [3] proved that the min-cut max-flow ratio for general maximum concurrent flow problems (when there are k commodities...
