Representing reductions of NP-complete problems in logical frameworks: a case study
Under the widely believed conjecture P=NP, NP-complete problems cannot be solved exactly using efficient polynomial time algorithms. Furthermore, any instance of a NP-complete pro...

To Fill or Not to Fill: The Gas Station Problem
In this paper we study several routing problems that generalize shortest paths and the Traveling Salesman Problem. We consider a more general model that incorporates the actual co...

Practical Approximation Algorithms for Separable Packing Linear Programs
Abstract. We describe fully polynomial time approximation schemes for generalized multicommodity flow problems arising in VLSI applications such as Global Routing via Buffer Block...

Session Privacy Enhancement by Traffic Dispersion
— Traditional network routing uses the single (shortest) path paradigm. This paradigm leaves the session vulnerable to a variety of security threats, such as eavesdropping. We pr...

An Improved Approximation Scheme for Computing Arrow-Debreu Prices for the Linear Case
Recently, Jain, Mahdian and Saberi [5] had given a FPTAS for the problem of computing a market equilibrium in the Arrow-Debreu setting, when the utilities are linear functions. The...
