We consider a classic multidimensional generalization of the bin packing problem, namely, packing d-dimensional rectangles into the minimum number of unit cubes. Our two results a...
We develop a framework for obtaining Fully Polynomial Time Approximation Schemes (FPTASs) for stochastic univariate dynamic programs with either convex or monotone single-period c...

Given an undirected graph, finding either a minimum 2-edge-connected spanning subgraph or a minimum 2vertex-connected (biconnected) spanning subgraph is MaxSNP-hard. We show that ...

Abstract. We present fully polynomial approximation schemes for the problem of minimizing completion time variance of a set of n jobs on a single machine. The fastest of these sche...

We give a polynomial approximation scheme for the problem of scheduling on uniformly related parallel machines for a large class of objective functions that depend only on the mac...
