CSAA: A Distributed Ant Algorithm Framework for Constraint Satisfaction
In this paper the distributed Constraint Satisfaction Ant Algorithm (CSAA) framework is presented. It uses an ant-based system for the distributed solving of constraint satisfacti...

Discrete stochastic optimization using linear interpolation
We consider discrete stochastic optimization problems where the objective function can only be estimated by a simulation oracle; the oracle is defined only at the discrete points....

Iterative Methods in Combinatorial Optimization
We describe a simple iterative method for proving a variety of results in combinatorial optimization. It is inspired by Jain’s iterative rounding method (FOCS 1998) for designing...

On the Complexity of Computing Short Linearly Independent Vectors and Short Bases in a Lattice
Motivated by Ajtai’s worst-case to average-case reduction for lattice problems, we study the complexity of computing short linearly independent vectors (short basis) in a lattic...
