We present a technique for transforming classical approximation algorithms into constant-time algorithms that approximate the size of the optimal solution. Our technique is applic...
Abstract. We consider the problem of computing a weighted edge matching in a large graph using a parallel algorithm. This problem has application in several areas of combinatorial ...
We present randomized algorithms for two sorting problems. In the local sorting problem, a graph is given in which each vertex is assigned an element of a total order, and the task...
This paper introduces a multiagent optimization algorithm inspired by the collective behavior of social insects. In our method, each agent encodes a possible solution of the probl...
