We prove that approximating the Max Acyclic Subgraph problem within a factor better than 1/2 is Unique-Games hard. Specifically, for every constant ε > 0 the following holds:...
Model Driven Architecture (MDA) is a software development approach that focuses on models. In order to support MDA, a lot of CASE tools have emerged; each of them provides a diffe...
We study the admission control problem in general networks. Communication requests arrive over time, and the online algorithm accepts or rejects each request while maintaining the...
In this paper, we give the rst constant-factor approximationalgorithmfor the rooted Orienteering problem, as well as a new problem that we call the Discounted-Reward TSP, motivate...

In the mobile facility location problem, which is a variant of the classical Uncapacitated Facility Location and kMedian problems, each facility and client is assigned to a start ...
