A Clustering Approach to Solving Large Stochastic Matching Problems
In this work we focus on efficient heuristics for solving a class of stochastic planning problems that arise in a variety of business, investment, and industrial applications. The...

Non-approximability Results for Scheduling Problems with Minsum Criteria
We provide several non-approximability results for deterministic scheduling problems whose objective is to minimize the total job completion time. Unless P = NP, none of the probl...

Adaptive Discontinuous Galerkin Methods for Eigenvalue Problems Arising in Incompressible Fluid Flows
In this article we consider the a posteriori error estimation and adaptive mesh refinement of discontinuous Galerkin finite element approximations of the hydrodynamic stability p...

Varying bandwidth resource allocation problem with bag constraints
We consider the problem of scheduling jobs on a pool of machines. Each job requires multiple machines on which it executes in parallel. For each job, the input specifies release ti...
