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