The paper presents distributed and parallel -approximation algorithms for covering problems, where is the maximum number of variables on which any constraint depends (for example...
Abstract—Network flow models serve as a popular mathematical framework for the analysis and optimization of Multi-hop Wireless Networks. They also serve to provide the understan...
This paper studies a new generalization of the regular permutation flowshop scheduling problem (PFSP) referred to as the distributed permutation flowshop scheduling problem or DPF...
Finding a feasible solution of a given Mixed-Integer Programming (MIP) model is a very important (NP-complete) problem that can be extremely hard in practice. Very recently, Fisch...
Abstract—The peer-to-peer networking concept has revolutionized the cost structure of Internet data dissemination by making large scale content delivery with low server cost feas...
