We give efficient distributed approximation algorithms for weighted versions of the maximum matching problem and the minimum dominating set problem for graphs from minor-closed fam...
We give a constant factor approximation algorithm for the following generalization of the k-median problem. We are given a set of clients and facilities in a metric space. Each fa...
In this paper, we initiate the study of designing approximation algorithms for FaultTolerant Group-Steiner (FTGS) problems. The motivation is to protect the well-studied group-Ste...
Consider a truck running along a road. It picks up a load Li at point i and delivers it at i, carrying at most one load at a time. The speed on the various parts of the road in on...
This paper deals with the approximation of the buckling coefficients and modes of a clamped plate modeled by the Reissner-Mindlin equations. These coefficients are related with the...
