Communication-Aware Processor Allocation for Supercomputers
Abstract. We give processor-allocation algorithms for grid architectures, where the objective is to select processors from a set of available processors to minimize the average num...

An Improved Approximation Bound for Spanning Star Forest and Color Saving
We present a simple algorithm for the maximum spanning star forest problem. We take advantage of the fact that the problem is a special case of complementary set cover and we adapt...

Probabilistic models for the Steiner Tree problem
We consider a probabilistic model for the Steiner Tree problem. Under this model the problem is defined in a 2-stage setting over a first-stage complete weighted graph having it...

Sums of squares based approximation algorithms for MAX-SAT
We investigate the Semidefinite Programming based Sums of squares (SOS) decomposition method, designed for global optimization of polynomials, in the context of the (Maximum) Sati...

Sampling search-engine results
We consider the problem of efficiently sampling Web search engine query results. In turn, using a small random sample instead of the full set of results leads to efficient approxi...
