Approximation Bounds for a General Class of Precedence Constrained Parallel Machine Scheduling Problems
Abstract. A well studied and difficult class of scheduling problems concerns parallel machines and precedence constraints. In order to model more realistic situations, we consider ...

On Approximating Four Covering and Packing Problems
In this paper, we consider approximability issues of the following four problems: triangle packing, full sibling reconstruction, maximum profit coverage and 2-coverage. All of th...
