Abstract. Shop scheduling problems are known to be notoriously intractable, both in theory and practice. In this paper we give a randomized approximation algorithm for flow shop s...
In [Sch99], Sch¨oning proposed a simple yet efficient randomized algorithm for solving the k-SAT problem. In the case of 3-SAT, the algorithm has an expected running time of poly...
We present randomized algorithms for two sorting problems. In the local sorting problem, a graph is given in which each vertex is assigned an element of a total order, and the task...
We present a new randomized sorting algorithm on the Bulk-SynchronousParallel (BSP) model. The algorithm improves upon the parallel slack of previous algorithms to achieve optimal...

We study a random graph Gn that combines certain aspects of geometric random graphs and preferential attachment graphs. This model yields a graph with power-law degree distributio...
