We study constraint satisfaction problems on the domain {-1, 1}, where the given constraints are homogeneous linear threshold predicates. That is, predicates of the form sgn(w1x1 +...
We study local, distributed algorithms for the capacitated minimum dominating set (CapMDS) problem, which arises in various distributed network applications. Given a network graph...
An edge dominating set for a graph G is a set D of edges such that each edge of G is in D or adjacent to at least one edge in D. This work studies deterministic distributed approx...
—With the explosive deployment of “triple play” (voice, video and data services) over the same access network, guaranteeing a certain-level of survivability for the access ne...
Abstract. In this paper we present a novel analysis of a random sampling approach for three clustering problems in metric spaces: k-median, min-sum kclustering, and balanced k-medi...
