Optimal triangulation and quadric-based surface simplification
Many algorithms for reducing the number of triangles in a surface model have been proposed, but to date there has been little theoretical analysis of the approximations they produ...

Approximation Algorithms for Reliable Stochastic Combinatorial Optimization
We consider optimization problems that can be formulated as minimizing the cost of a feasible solution wT x over an arbitrary combinatorial feasible set F {0, 1}n . For these pro...

On Minimizing the Sum of Sensor Movements for Barrier Coverage of a Line Segment
A set of sensors establishes barrier coverage of a given line segment if every point of the segment is within the sensing range of a sensor. Given a line segment I, n mobile sensor...
