A quasi-PTAS for unsplittable flow on line graphs
We study the Unsplittable Flow Problem (UFP) on a line graph, focusing on the long-standing open question of whether the problem is APX-hard. We describe a deterministic quasi-pol...

On the Optimality of the Dimensionality Reduction Method
We investigate the optimality of (1+ )-approximation algorithms obtained via the dimensionality reduction method. We show that: • Any data structure for the (1 + )-approximate n...

Clustering with Diversity
Abstract. We consider the clustering with diversity problem: given a set of colored points in a metric space, partition them into clusters such that each cluster has at least point...

Robust Subgraphs for Trees and Paths
Consider a graph problem which is associated with a parameter, for example, that of finding a longest tour spanning k vertices. The following question is natural: Is there a smal...

Multiobjective VLSI cell placement using distributed simulated evolution algorithm
— Simulated Evolution (SimE) is a sound stochastic approximation algorithm based on the principles of adaptation. If properly engineered it is possible for SimE to reach nearopti...
