Packing: Scheduling, Embedding, and Approximating Metrics
Abstract. Many problems in computer science are related to scheduling problems or embedding problems. Therefore it is an interesting topic to find efficient (approximation) algori...

The Snowblower Problem
Abstract: We introduce the snowblower problem (SBP), a new optimization problem that is closely related to milling problems and to some material-handling problems. The objective in...

Symmetry and Approximability of Submodular Maximization Problems
Abstract— A number of recent results on optimization problems involving submodular functions have made use of the ”multilinear relaxation” of the problem [3], [8], [24], [14]...

First order LUB approximations: characterization and algorithms
One of the major approaches to approximation of logical theories is the upper and lower bounds approach introduced in (Selman and Kautz, 1991, 1996). In this paper, we address the...
