Approximations in Distributed Optimization
Abstract. We present a parameterized approximation scheme for distributed combinatorial optimization problems based on dynamic programming. The algorithm is a utility propagation m...

A Parallel Approximation Algorithm for the Weighted Maximum Matching Problem
Abstract. We consider the problem of computing a weighted edge matching in a large graph using a parallel algorithm. This problem has application in several areas of combinatorial ...

Lower bounds for graph embeddings and combinatorial preconditioners
Given a general graph G, a fundamental problem is to find a spanning tree H that best approximates G by some measure. Often this measure is some combination of the congestion and...

Reverse-engineering BitTorrent: A Markov approximation perspective
Abstract—BitTorrent has been the most popular P2P (Peer-toPeer) paradigm during recent years. Built upon great intuition, the piece-selection and neighbor-selection modules roote...

Boosted sampling: approximation algorithms for stochastic optimization
Several combinatorial optimization problems choose elements to minimize the total cost of constructing a feasible solution that satisfies requirements of clients. In the STEINER T...
