Probabilistic Arc Consistency: A Connection between Constraint Reasoning and Probabilistic Reasoning
We document a connection between constraint reasoning and probabilistic reasoning. We present an algorithm, called probabilistic arc consistency, which is both a generalization of...

Stochastic Optimization is (Almost) as easy as Deterministic Optimization
Stochastic optimization problems attempt to model uncertainty in the data by assuming that (part of) the input is specified in terms of a probability distribution. We consider the...

3d local algorithm for dominating sets of unit disk graphs
A dominating set of a graph G = (V, E) is a subset V V of the nodes such that for all nodes v V , either v V or a neighbor u of v is in V . Several routing protocols in ad hoc ...

Exact and Approximation Algorithms for DNA Tag Set Design
In this paper we propose new solution methods for designing tag sets for use in universal DNA arrays. First, we give integer linear programming formulations for two previous formal...

Approximating Fault-Tolerant Group-Steiner Problems
In this paper, we initiate the study of designing approximation algorithms for FaultTolerant Group-Steiner (FTGS) problems. The motivation is to protect the well-studied group-Ste...
