Local ratio is a well-known paradigm for designing approximation algorithms for combinatorial optimization problems. At a very high level, a local-ratio algorithm first decomposes ...
In this paper we consider the capacitated vertex cover problem which is the variant of vertex cover where each node is allowed to cover a limited number of edges. We present an ef...
This paper presents an efficient approach to compute the dominant poles for the reduced-order admittance (Y parameter) matrix of lossy interconnects. Using the global approximati...
This paper introduces a novel technique for synthesis of speed-independent circuits from their Signal Transition Graph specifications. The new method uses partial order in the fo...

We prove that fixed-point logic with counting captures polynomial time on all classes of graphs with excluded minors. That is, for every class C of graphs such that some graph H is...
