—A Virtual Private Network (VPN) aims to emulate the services provided by a private network over the shared Internet. The endpoints of e connected using abstractions such as Virt...
In this paper, we consider the problem of estimating link loss rates based on end-to-end path loss rates in order to identify lossy links on the network. We first derive a maximu...
In this paper, we give the rst constant-factor approximationalgorithmfor the rooted Orienteering problem, as well as a new problem that we call the Discounted-Reward TSP, motivate...

This paper investigates the problem of time-optimum movement planning in two and three dimensions for a point robot which has bounded control velocity through a set of n polygonal...
Minimizing Waiting Time Variance (WTV) is a job scheduling problem where we schedule a batch of n jobs, for servicing on a single resource, in such a way that the variance of thei...
