Approximation Algorithms for Reliable Stochastic Combinatorial Optimization
We consider optimization problems that can be formulated as minimizing the cost of a feasible solution wT x over an arbitrary combinatorial feasible set F {0, 1}n . For these pro...

Multicast time maximization in energy constrained wireless networks
We consider the problem of maximizing the lifetime of a given multicast connection in a wireless network of energyconstrained (e.g. battery-operated) nodes, by choosing ideal tran...
