We study the $k$-server problem with time-windows. In this problem, each request $i$ arrives at some point $v_i$ of an $n$-point metric space at time $b_i$ and comes with a deadline $e_i$. One of the $k$ servers must be moved to $v_i$ at…

In this work, we study the $k$-median and $k$-means clustering problems when the data is distributed across many servers and can contain outliers. While there has been a lot of work on these problems for worst-case instances, we focus on…

Given a set of points, clustering consists of finding a partition of a point set into $k$ clusters such that the center to which a point is assigned is as close as possible. Most commonly, centers are points themselves, which leads to the…

We propose a novel clustering model encompassing two well-known clustering models: k-center clustering and k-median clustering. In the Hybrid k-Clusetring problem, given a set P of points in R^d, an integer k, and a non-negative real r, our…
