On the complexity of scheduling in wireless networks
We consider the problem of throughput-optimal scheduling in wireless networks subject to interference constraints. We model the interference using a family of K-hop interference m...

On the Power of Randomization in Algorithmic Mechanism Design
In many settings the power of truthful mechanisms is severely bounded. In this paper we use randomization to overcome this problem. In particular, we construct an FPTAS for multi-...

The Generalized Deadlock Resolution Problem
In this paper we initiate the study of the AND-OR directed feedback vertex set problem from the viewpoint of approximation algorithms. This AND-OR feedback vertex set problem is m...

Query Answering and Containment for Regular Path Queries under Distortions
Abstract. We give a general framework for approximate query processing in semistructured databases. We focus on regular path queries, which are the integral part of most of the que...

Finding the best shortcut in a geometric network
Given a Euclidean graph G in Rd with n vertices and m edges we consider the problem of adding a shortcut such that the stretch factor of the resulting graph is minimized. Currentl...
