Abstract. We present a parameterized approximation scheme for distributed combinatorial optimization problems based on dynamic programming. The algorithm is a utility propagation m...
Inference of topological and geometric attributes of a hidden manifold from its point data is a fundamental problem arising in many scientific studies and engineering application...
Process network problems can be formulated as Generalized Disjunctive Programs where a logicbased representation is used to deal with the discrete and continuous decisions. A new ...
This paper discusses algorithms for labeling sets of points in the plane, where labels are not restricted to some finite number of positions. We show that continuously sliding lab...

Connected Vertex Cover Problem (CVC) is an NP-hard problem. The currently best known approximation algorithm for CVC has performance ration 2. This paper gives the first Polynomial...
