Improved Absolute Approximation Ratios for Two-Dimensional Packing Problems
Abstract. We consider the two-dimensional bin packing and strip packing problem, where a list of rectangles has to be packed into a minimal number of rectangular bins or a strip of...

Approximating the Degree-Bounded Minimum Diameter Spanning Tree Problem
We consider the problem of finding a minimum diameter spanning tree with maximum node degree B in a complete undirected edge-weighted graph. We provide an O( p logB n)-approximatio...

Priority Algorithms for the Subset-Sum Problem
Greedy algorithms are simple, but their relative power is not well understood. The priority framework [5] captures a key notion of “greediness” in the sense that it processes (...
