With growing emphasis on e-commerce marketplace platforms where we have a central platform mediating between the seller and the buyer, it becomes important to keep a check on the availability and profitability of the central store. A store…
Graph connectivity and network design problems are among the most fundamental problems in combinatorial optimization. The minimum spanning tree problem, the two edge-connected spanning subgraph problem (2-ECSS) and the tree augmentation…
We study the unsplittable flow on a path problem (UFP) where we are given a path with non-negative edge capacities and tasks, which are characterized by a subpath, a demand, and a profit. The goal is to find the most profitable subset of…
We obtain a 1.5-approximation algorithm for the metric uncapacitated facility location problem (UFL), which improves on the previously best known 1.52-approximation algorithm by Mahdian, Ye and Zhang. Note, that the approximability lower…
We study the complexity of approximating the vertex expansion of graphs $G = (V,E)$, defined as \[ \Phi^V := \min_{S \subset V} n \cdot \frac{|N(S)|}{|S| |V \backslash S|}. \] We give a simple polynomial-time algorithm for finding a subset…
The graph-theoretical task of determining most likely inter-community edges based on disconnected subgraphs' intra-community connectivity is proposed. An algorithm is developed for this edge augmentation task, based on elevating the zero…
We pursue a study of the Generalized Demand Matching problem, a common generalization of the $b$-Matching and Knapsack problems. Here, we are given a graph with vertex capacities, edge profits, and asymmetric demands on the edges. The goal…
We first show that a better analysis of the algorithm for The Two-Sage Stochastic Facility Location Problem from Srinivasan \cite{sri07} and the algorithm for The Robust Fault Tolerant Facility Location Problem from Byrka et al \cite{bgs10}…
In this work, we study the problem of energy-efficient computation offloading enabled by edge computing. In the considered scenario, multiple users simultaneously compete for limited radio and edge computing resources to get offloaded tasks…
We address deterministic resource allocation in point-to-point multi-terminal AWGN channels without inter-terminal interference, with particular focus on optimizing quantile transmission rates for cell-edge terminal service. Classical…
In Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) networks, users covered by a mobile network can exploit edge clouds (ECs), computational resources located at the network's edge, to execute virtual network functions (VNFs). ECs are particularly useful…
The goal in the stochastic vertex cover problem is to obtain an approximately minimum vertex cover for a graph $G^\star$ that is realized by sampling each edge independently with some probability $p\in (0, 1]$ in a base graph $G = (V, E)$.…
The 2-Edge-Connected Spanning Subgraph Problem (2ECSS) is a fundamental problem in survivable network design. Given an undirected $2$-edge-connected graph, the goal is to find a $2$-edge-connected spanning subgraph with the minimum number…
This paper considers facility location problems in which a firm entering a market seeks to open facilities on a subset of candidate locations so as to maximize its expected market share, assuming that customers choose the available…
In the classical (min-cost) Steiner tree problem, we are given an edge-weighted undirected graph and a set of terminal nodes. The goal is to compute a min-cost tree S which spans all terminals. In this paper we consider the min-power…
Mobile edge computing (MEC) has been envisaged as a promising technique in the next-generation wireless networks. In order to improve the security of computation tasks offloading and enhance user connectivity, physical layer security and…
In this paper, we address the problem of capacitated facility location problem with penalties (CapFLPP) paid per unit of unserved demand. In case of uncapacitated FLP with penalties demands of a client are either entirely met or are…
Partial set cover problem and set multi-cover problem are two generalizations of set cover problem. In this paper, we consider the partial set multi-cover problem which is a combination of them: given an element set $E$, a collection of…
Energy saving is becoming an important issue in the design and use of computer networks. In this work we propose a problem that considers the use of rate adaptation as the energy saving strategy in networks. The problem is modeled as an…
Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) enables rich services in close proximity to the end users to provide high quality of experience (QoE) and contributes to energy conservation compared with local computing, but results in increased communication…
