We introduce and study the donation center location problem, which has an additional application in network testing and may also be of independent interest as a general graph-theor...
ABSTRACT. We consider concurrent systems that can be modelled as 1-safe Petri nets communicating through a fixed set of buffers (modelled as unbounded places). We identify a param...
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...
In this paper, we initiate the study of designing approximation algorithms for FaultTolerant Group-Steiner (FTGS) problems. The motivation is to protect the well-studied group-Ste...
Abstract. Model-driven software development often involves several related models. When models are updated, the updates need to be propagated across all models to make them consist...
