Weighted Coloring: Further Complexity and Approximability Results
Given a vertex-weighted graph G = (V, E; w), w(v) ≥ 0 for any v ∈ V , we consider a weighted version of the coloring problem which consists in finding a partition S = (S1, . ...

Cyclical scheduling and multi-shift scheduling: Complexity and approximation algorithms
We consider the multiple shift scheduling problem modelled as a covering problem. Such problems are characterized by a constraint matrix that has in every column blocks of consecu...

An efficient, error-bounded approximation algorithm for simulating quasi-statics of complex linkages
Design and analysis of articulated mechanical structures, commonly referred to as linkages, is an integral part of any CAD/CAM system. The most common approaches formulate the pro...

The Complexity of Making Unique Choices: Approximating 1-in- k SAT
We study the approximability of 1-in-kSAT, the variant of Max kSAT where a clause is deemed satisfied when precisely one of its literals is satisfied. We also investigate differ...

Expected-case complexity of approximate nearest neighbor searching
Most research in algorithms for geometric query problems has focused on their worstcase performance. However, when information on the query distribution is available, the alternat...
