— In this paper we propose a subgradient method for solving coupled optimization problems in a distributed way given restrictions on the communication topology. The iterative pro...
—The paper addresses the problem of massive content distribution in the network where multiple sessions coexist. In the traditional approaches, the sessions form separate overlay...
Abstract. This paper deals with approximations of maximum independent sets in non-uniform hypergraphs of low degree. We obtain the first performance ratio that is sublinear in term...
There is a large literature on the rate of convergence problem for general unconstrained stochastic approximations. Typically, one centers the iterate n about the limit point then...
The Positive-Negative Partial Set Cover problem is introduced and its complexity, especially the hardness-of-approximation, is studied. The problem generalizes the Set Cover probl...
