Design is as Easy as Optimization
We consider the class of max-min and min-max optimization problems subject to a global budget (or weight) constraint and we undertake a systematic algorithmic and complexitytheore...

A tight bound on approximating arbitrary metrics by tree metrics
In this paper, we show that any n point metric space can be embedded into a distribution over dominating tree metrics such that the expected stretch of any edge is O(log n). This ...

Coordinatized Kernels and Catalytic Reductions: An Improved FPT Algorithm for Max Leaf Spanning Tree and Other Problems
Abstract. We describe some new, simple and apparently general methods for designing FPT algorithms, and illustrate how these can be used to obtain a signi cantly improved FPT algor...

Routing Explicit Side Information for Data Compression in Wireless Sensor Networks
Abstract. Two difficulties in designing data-centric routes [2–5] in wireless sensor networks are the lack of reasonably practical data aggregation models and the high computatio...
