A fully polynomial time approximation scheme for timing driven minimum cost buffer insertion
As VLSI technology enters the nanoscale regime, interconnect delay has become the bottleneck of the circuit timing. As one of the most powerful techniques for interconnect optimiz...

Line planning, path constrained network flow and inapproximability
Abstract. We consider a basic subproblem which arises in line planning, and is of particular importance in the context of a high system load or robustness: How much can be routed m...

Minimizing Stall Time in Single and Parallel Disk Systems
We study integrated prefetching and caching problems following the work of Cao et. al. [3] and Kimbrel and Karlin [13]. Cao et. al. and Kimbrel and Karlin gave approximation algor...

Representing reductions of NP-complete problems in logical frameworks: a case study
Under the widely believed conjecture P=NP, NP-complete problems cannot be solved exactly using efficient polynomial time algorithms. Furthermore, any instance of a NP-complete pro...

Bit Allocation in Sub-linear Time and the Multiple-Choice Knapsack Problem
We show that the problem of optimal bit allocation among a set of independent discrete quantizers given a budget constraint is equivalent to the multiple choice knapsack problem (...
