This paper presents the design and analysis of parallel approximation algorithms for facility-location problems, including NC and RNC algorithms for (metric) facility location, k-...
Sequence Diagrams (SDs) have proven useful for describing transaction-oriented systems, and can form a basis for creating statecharts. However, distributed embedded systems require...
Given a database instance and a corresponding view instance, we address the view definitions problem (VDP): Find the most succinct and accurate view definition, when the view quer...

We consider PAC learning of simple cooperative games, in which the coalitions are partitioned into "winning" and "losing" coalitions. We analyze the complexity...
Surprisingly, general search heuristics often solve combinatorial problems quite sufficiently, although they do not outperform specialized algorithms. Here, the behavior of simple...
