Approximation algorithms for stochastic orienteering
In the Stochastic Orienteering problem, we are given a metric, where each node also has a job located there with some deterministic reward and a random size. (Think of the jobs as...

An Almost Linear Time 2.8334-Approximation Algorithm for the Disc Covering Problem
The disc covering problem asks to cover a set of points on the plane with a minimum number of fix-sized discs. We develop an O(n(log n)2 (log log n)2 ) deterministic time 2.8334-a...

On optimality of a polynomial algorithm for random linear multidimensional assignment problem
We demonstrate that the Linear Multidimensional Assignment Problem with iid random costs is polynomially "-approximable almost surely (a. s.) via a simple greedy heuristic, f...

A Simple Factor-2/3 Approximation Algorithm for Two-Circle Point Labeling
Given a set P of n points in the plane, the two-circle point-labeling problem consists of placing 2n uniform, non-intersecting, maximum-size open circles such that each point touc...

An Approximation Algorithm for Binary Searching in Trees
We consider the problem of computing efficient strategies for searching in trees. As a generalization of the classical binary search for ordered lists, suppose one wishes to find...
