In the last 25 years approximation algorithms for discrete optimization problems have been in the center of research in the fields of mathematical programming and computer science...
In the oblivious buy-at-bulk network design problem in a graph, the task is to compute a fixed set of paths for every pair of source-destination in the graph, such that any set of ...

The non-existence of an end-to-end path poses a challenge in adapting the traditional routing algorithms to delay tolerant networks (DTNs). Previous works include centralized rout...
We study the mergeability of data summaries. Informally speaking, mergeability requires that, given two summaries on two data sets, there is a way to merge the two summaries into ...
