We investigate a natural combinatorial optimization problem called the Label Cut problem. Given an input graph G with a source s and a sink t, the edges of G are classified into ...
This report addresses the problem of scheduling for real-time systems that include both hard and soft tasks. In order to capture the relative importance of soft tasks and how the ...
Let p > 1 be any fixed real. We show that assuming NP RP, there is no polynomial time algorithm that approximates the Shortest Vector Problem (SVP) in p norm within a constant ...
The maximum constraint satisfaction problem (Max CSP) is the following computational problem: an instance is a finite collection of constraints on a set of variables, and the goal...

We address in this paper the problem of scheduling for multiprocessor real-time systems with hard and soft tasks. Utility functions are associated to soft tasks to capture their r...
