—Developing simple distributed algorithms to allow nodes to perform topology discovery and message routing using incomplete topological information is a problem of great interest...
We introduce the Upgrading Shortest Paths Problem, a new combinatorial problem for improving network connectivity with a wide range of applications from multicast communication to ...

Abstract--The paper proposes a model which allows integration of services published by independent providers into scientific or business workflows. Optimization algorithms are prop...
We study a model that incorporates a budget constraint in a decision making problem. Our goal is to maximize the expected wealth, where in each time period we can either stop the ...
We investigate the complexity and approximability of some location problems when two distance values are specified for each pair of potential sites. These problems involve the se...
