In the recent years, CSP's have come to be seen as the core problem in many applications. We propose here a hybrid algorithm (MC-FC) that combines two different search method...
We provide combinatorial algorithms for the unsplittable flow problem (UFP) that either match or improve the previously best results. In the UFP we are given a (possibly directed)...
We consider the following one- and two-dimensional bucketing problems: Given a set S of n points in R1 or R2 and a positive integer b, distribute the points of S into b equal-size ...

Inference tasks in Markov random fields (MRFs) are closely related to the constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) and its soft generalizations. In particular, MAP inference in MRF i...
Complex queries over high speed data streams often need to rely on approximations to keep up with their input. The research community has developed a rich literature on approximat...
