Some of the currently best-known approximation algorithms for network design are based on random sampling. One of the key steps of such algorithms is connecting a set of source nod...
In this paper we propose a new exchange method for solving convex semi-infinite programming (CSIP) problems. We introduce a new dropping-rule in the proposed exchange algorithm, wh...
Let > 0 be a constant. For any edge-weighted planar graph G and a subset S of nodes of G, there is a subgraph H of G of weight a constant times that of the minimum Steiner tree...
Abstract. A fundamental problem in computational biology is the determination of the correct species tree for a set of taxa given a set of possibly contradictory gene trees. In rec...

Consider the edge-connectivity survivable network design problem: given a graph G = (V, E) with edge-costs, and edgeconnectivity requirements rij Z0 for every pair of vertices i,...
