Approximation Algorithms for Scheduling Parallel Jobs
Abstract. In this paper we study variants of the non-preemptive parallel job scheduling problem where the number of machines is polynomially bounded in the number of jobs. For this...

A Constant-Factor Approximation Algorithm for the Multicommodity
We present the first constant-factor approximation algorithm for network design with multiple commodities and economies of scale. We consider the rent-or-buy problem, a type of m...

Hybrid Least-Squares Algorithms for Approximate Policy Evaluation
The goal of approximate policy evaluation is to “best” represent a target value function according to a specific criterion. Temporal difference methods and Bellman residual m...

Approximation Algorithms for the Sex-Equal Stable Marriage Problem
The stable marriage problem is a classical matching problem introduced by Gale and Shapley. It is known that for any instance, there exists a solution, and there is a polynomial ti...

Fast distributed approximation algorithms for vertex cover and set cover in anonymous networks
We present a distributed algorithm that finds a maximal edge packing in O(∆ + log∗ W) synchronous communication rounds in a weighted graph, independent of the number of nodes...
