Tight results for Next Fit and Worst Fit with resource augmentation
It is well known that the two simple algorithms for the classic bin packing problem, NF and WF both have an approximation ratio of 2. However, WF seems to be a more reasonable alg...

Query Answering and Containment for Regular Path Queries under Distortions
Abstract. We give a general framework for approximate query processing in semistructured databases. We focus on regular path queries, which are the integral part of most of the que...

Variational image segmentation using boundary functions
Abstract—A general variational framework for image approximation and segmentation is introduced. By using a continuous “line-process” to represent edge boundaries, it is poss...

Robust Monitoring of Link Delays and Faults in IP Networks
Abstract – In this paper, we develop failure-resilient techniques for monitoring link delays and faults in a Service Provider or Enterprise IP network. Our two-phased approach at...
