Approximating node connectivity problems via set covers
Given a graph (directed or undirected) with costs on the edges, and an integer k, we consider the problem of nding a k-node connected spanning subgraph of minimum cost. For the ge...

Weighted Geometric Set Cover via Quasi-Uniform Sampling
There has been much progress on geometric set cover problems, but most known techniques only apply to the unweighted setting. For the weighted setting, very few results are known ...

Distributed Approximation Algorithm for Resource Clustering
In this paper, we consider the clustering of resources on large scale platforms. More precisely, we target parallel applications consisting of independant tasks, where each task is...

Restricted Strip Covering and the Sensor Cover Problem
Suppose we are given a set of objects that cover a region and a duration associated with each object. Viewing the objects as jobs, can we schedule their beginning times to maximiz...

Feasible and Accurate Algorithms for Covering Semidefinite Programs
In this paper we describe an algorithm to approximately solve a class of semidefinite programs called covering semidefinite programs. This class includes many semidefinite programs...
