The general problem of robust optimization is this: one of several possible scenarios will appear tomorrow, but things are more expensive tomorrow than they are today. What should...
Asymptotically bounding the covering radius in terms of the dual distance is a well-studied problem. We will combine the polynomial approach with estimates of the distance distribu...
Given m unit disks and n points in the plane, the discrete unit disk cover problem is to select a minimum subset of the disks to cover the points. This problem is NP-hard [11] and ...

We describe sequential and parallel algorithms that approximately solve linear programs with no negative coefficients (a.k.a. mixed packing and covering problems). For explicitly ...
Given a collection Ᏺ of subsets of S ϭ {1, . . . , n}, set cover is the problem of selecting as few as possible subsets from Ᏺ such that their union covers S, and max k-cover ...
