Efficient algorithm for placing a given number of base stations to cover a convex region
In the context of mobile communication, an efficient algorithm for the base-station placement problem is developed in this paper. The objective is to place a given number of base-...

Exact Quantum Algorithms for the Leader Election Problem
Abstract. It is well-known that no classical algorithm can solve exactly (i.e., in bounded time without error) the leader election problem in anonymous networks. This paper propose...

Near-perfect load balancing by randomized rounding
We consider and analyze a new algorithm for balancing indivisible loads on a distributed network with n processors. The aim is minimizing the discrepancy between the maximum and m...

The importance of being biased
The Minimum Vertex Cover problem is the problem of, given a graph, finding a smallest set of vertices that touches all edges. We show that it is NP-hard to approximate this proble...

Roundings Respecting Hard Constraints
We provide a deterministic algorithm that constructs small point sets exhibiting a low star discrepancy. The algorithm is based on recent results on randomized roundings respectin...
