Following the well-studied two-stage optimization framework for stochastic optimization [15, 18], we study approximation algorithms for robust two-stage optimization problems with ...

In this paper we consider a natural generalization of the well-known Max Leaf
Spanning Tree problem. In the generalized Weighted Max Leaf problem we get as
input an undirected co...
We consider the multiple shift scheduling problem modelled as a covering problem. Such problems are characterized by a constraint matrix that has in every column blocks of consecu...
Multiobjective optimization deals with problems involving multiple measures of performance that should be optimized simultaneously. In this paper we extend bucket elimination (BE),...
