Non-approximability Results for Scheduling Problems with Minsum Criteria
We provide several non-approximability results for deterministic scheduling problems whose objective is to minimize the total job completion time. Unless P = NP, none of the probl...

Distributed algorithms for edge dominating sets
An edge dominating set for a graph G is a set D of edges such that each edge of G is in D or adjacent to at least one edge in D. This work studies deterministic distributed approx...

Approximation in Preemptive Stochastic Online Scheduling
Abstract. We present a first constant performance guarantee for preemptive stochastic scheduling to minimize the sum of weighted completion times. For scheduling jobs with release ...

Locality-sensitive hashing scheme based on p-stable distributions
We present a novel Locality-Sensitive Hashing scheme for the Approximate Nearest Neighbor Problem under ÐÔ norm, based on Ôstable distributions. Our scheme improves the running...
