Approximating Circular Arc Colouring and Bandwidth Allocation in All-Optical Ring Networks
We present randomized approximation algorithms for the circular arc graph colouring problem and for the problem of bandwidth allocation in all-optical ring networks. We obtain a fa...

Robot trajectory optimization using approximate inference
The general stochastic optimal control (SOC) problem in robotics scenarios is often too complex to be solved exactly and in near real time. A classical approximate solution is to ...

Better Approximation Guarantees for Job-shop Scheduling
Job-shop scheduling is a classical NP-hard problem. Shmoys, Stein, and Wein presented the first polynomial-time approximation algorithm for this problem that has a good (polylogar...
