2-Medians in trees with pos/neg weights
This paper deals with facility location problems with pos=neg weights in trees. We consider two di erent objective functions which model two di erent ways to handle obnoxious faci...

Minimum-cost load-balancing partitions
We consider the problem of balancing the load among m service-providing facilities, while keeping the total cost low. Let R be the underlying demand region, and let p1, . . . , pm...

An efficient approximation algorithm for the survivable network design problem
The survivable network design problem (SNDP) is to construct a minimum-cost subgraph satisfying certain given edge-connectivity requirements. The first polynomial-time approximati...
