Abstract. We present a first constant performance guarantee for preemptive stochastic scheduling to minimize the sum of weighted completion times. For scheduling jobs with release ...
The unit ball random geometric graph G = Gd p(λ, n) has as its vertices n points distributed independently and uniformly in the unit ball in Rd, with two vertices adjacent if and ...

Abstract. This paper is devoted to an online variant of the minimum spanning tree problem in randomly weighted graphs. We assume that the input graph is complete and the edge weigh...
We consider a wireless collision channel, shared by a finite number of users who transmit to a common base station. Each user wishes to minimize its average transmission rate (or p...
An alternate formulation of the classical vehicle routing problem with stochastic demands (VRPSD) is considered. We propose a new heuristic method to solve the problem. The algori...
