Algorithms for Single-Source Vertex Connectivity
In the Survivable Network Design Problem (SNDP) the goal is to find a minimum cost subset of edges that satisfies a given set of pairwise connectivity requirements among the ver...

Area of surface as a basis for vertex removal based mesh simplification
A new, area-based mesh simplification algorithm is described. The proposed algorithm removes the center vertex of a polygon which consists of n ≥ 3 faces and represents that po...

Experiments with Improved Approximate Mean Value Analysis Algorithms
Abstract. Approximate Mean Value Analysis (MVA) is a popular technique for analyzing queueing networks because of the efficiency and accuracy that it affords. In this paper, we pre...

Covering Problems with Hard Capacities
We consider the classical vertex cover and set cover problems with the addition of hard capacity constraints. This means that a set (vertex) can only cover a limited number of its...

Inapproximability of Vertex Cover and Independent Set in Bounded Degree Graphs
We study the inapproximability of Vertex Cover and Independent Set on degree d graphs. We prove that: • Vertex Cover is Unique Games-hard to approximate to within a factor 2−(...
