Sublinear geometric algorithms
We initiate an investigation of sublinear algorithms for geometric problems in two and three dimensions. We give optimal algorithms for intersection detection of convex polygons a...

Improved Bounds for Flow Shop Scheduling
We resolve an open question raised by Feige & Scheideler by showing that the best known approximation algorithm for flow shops is essentially tight with respect to the used low...

Scenario Reduction Techniques in Stochastic Programming
Stochastic programming problems appear as mathematical models for optimization problems under stochastic uncertainty. Most computational approaches for solving such models are base...
