We consider an important generalization of the Steiner tree problem, the \emph{Steiner forest problem}, in the Euclidean plane: the input is a multiset $X \subseteq \mathbb{R}^2$, partitioned into $k$ color classes $C_1, C_2, \ldots, C_k…

In the matroid partitioning problem, we are given $k$ matroids $\mathcal{M}_1 = (V, \mathcal{I}_1), \dots , \mathcal{M}_k = (V, \mathcal{I}_k)$ defined over a common ground set $V$ of $n$ elements, and we need to find a partitionable set $S…

Big data problems frequently require processing datasets in a streaming fashion, either because all data are available at once but collectively are larger than available memory or because the data intrinsically arrive one data point at a…
