Low-state fairness: lower bounds and practical enforcement
— Providing approximate max-min fair bandwidth allocation among flows within a network or at a single router has been an important research problem. In this paper, we study the ...

Improved Approximation of Linear Threshold Functions
We prove two main results on how arbitrary linear threshold functions f(x) = sign(w · x − θ) over the n-dimensional Boolean hypercube can be approximated by simple threshold f...

On resource allocation in fading multiple-access channels-an efficient approximate projection approach
We consider the problem of rate and power allocation in a multiple-access channel. Our objective is to obtain rate and power allocation policies that maximize a general concave ut...

Approximation Schemes for Steiner Forest on Planar Graphs and Graphs of Bounded Treewidth
We give the first polynomial-time approximation scheme (PTAS) for the Steiner forest problem on planar graphs and, more generally, on graphs of bounded genus. As a first step, w...
