In the uncapacitated facility location problem, given a graph, a set of demands and opening costs, it is required to find a set of facilities R, so as to minimize the sum of the c...
Abstract. We give logarithmic approximation algorithms for the nonmetric uncapacitated multicommodity and multilevel facility location problems. The former algorithms are optimal u...
This paper studies the duality gap in the simple plant location problem, and presents general formulas for the gap when certain complementary slackness conditions are satisfied. W...
Given two n-bit (cyclic) binary strings, A and B, represented on a circle (necklace instances). Let each sequence have the same number k of 1’s. We are interested in computing th...
An issue that is equally arising both from social networks and the Semantic Web is the fact that, without the consistent use of the same identifier for an object across systems, i...
