It is well known that optimal server placement is NP-hard. We present an approximate model for the case when both clients and servers are dense, and propose a simple server alloca...
Following the well-studied two-stage optimization framework for stochastic optimization [15, 18], we study approximation algorithms for robust two-stage optimization problems with ...

Independence analysis is the problem of determining whether an update affects the result of a query, e.g. a constraint or materialized view. We develop a new, modular framework fo...
We consider dual classes of geometric coverage problems, in which disks, corresponding to coverage regions of sensors, are used to cover a region or set of points in the plane. The...

—Dual descent methods are commonly used to solve network optimization problems because their implementation can be distributed through the network. However, their convergence rat...
