Approximation algorithms for constructing wavelength routing networks
Consider a requirement graph whose vertices represent customers and an edge represents the need to route a unit of flow between its end vertices along a single path. All of these ...

On the construction of data aggregation tree with minimum energy cost in wireless sensor networks: NP-completeness and approxima
—In many applications, it is a basic operation for the sink to periodically collect reports from all sensors. Since the data gathering process usually proceeds for many rounds, i...

Approximation algorithms for combinatorial auctions with complement-free bidders
We exhibit three approximation algorithms for the allocation problem in combinatorial auctions with complement free bidders. The running time of these algorithms is polynomial in ...

Approximate counting by dynamic programming
We give efficient algorithms to sample uniformly, and count approximately, the solutions to a zero-one knapsack problem. The algorithm is based on using dynamic programming to pro...

Bi-criteria linear-time approximations for generalized k-mean/median/center
We consider the problem of approximating a set P of n points in Rd by a collection of j-dimensional flats, and extensions thereof, under the standard median / mean / center measur...
