Optimization Algorithms for Simultaneous Multidimensional Queries in OLAP Environments
Multi-Dimensional Expressions (MDX) provide an interface for asking several related OLAP queries simultaneously. An interesting problem is how to optimize the execution of an MDX q...

Approximation of an open polygonal curve with a minimum number of circular arcs and biarcs
We present an algorithm for approximating a given open polygonal curve with a minimum number of circular arcs. In computer-aided manufacturing environments, the paths of cutting t...

Tight Results on Minimum Entropy Set Cover
In the minimum entropy set cover problem, one is given a collection of k sets which collectively cover an n-element ground set. A feasible solution of the problem is a partition o...

Approximation Algorithms for Partial-Information Based Stochastic Control with Markovian Rewards
We consider a variant of the classic multi-armed bandit problem (MAB), which we call FEEDBACK MAB, where the reward obtained by playing each of n independent arms varies according...
