The Startup Problem in Fault-Tolerant Time-Triggered Communication
Fault-tolerant time-triggered communication relies on the synchronization of local clocks. The startup problem is the problem of reaching a sufficient degree of synchronization a...

Polynomial-Time Approximation Schemes for Subset-Connectivity Problems in Bounded-Genus Graphs
We present the first polynomial-time approximation schemes (PTASes) for the following subset-connectivity problems in edge-weighted graphs of bounded genus: Steiner tree, low-conn...

An Approximation Algorithm for Shortest Descending Paths
A path from s to t on a polyhedral terrain is descending if the height of a point p never increases while we move p along the path from s to t. No efficient algorithm is known to ...

Approximation Algorithms for Data Placement Problems
We develop approximation algorithms for the problem of placing replicated data in arbitrary networks, where the nodes may both issue requests for data objects and have capacity fo...
