Approximating Fault-Tolerant Group-Steiner Problems
In this paper, we initiate the study of designing approximation algorithms for FaultTolerant Group-Steiner (FTGS) problems. The motivation is to protect the well-studied group-Ste...

Approximate isocontours and spatial summaries for sensor networks
We consider the problem of approximating a family of isocontours in a sensor field with a topologically-equivalent family of simple polygons. Our algorithm is simple and distribu...

Approximating the Bandwidth of Caterpillars
A caterpillar is a tree in which all vertices of degree three or more lie on one path, called the backbone. We present a polynomial time algorithm that produces a linear arrangeme...

Speeding up Simplification of Polygonal Curves using Nested Approximations
: We develop a multiresolution approach to the problem of polygonal curve approximation. We show theoretically and experimentally that, if the simplification algorithm A used betwe...

Approximate Integer Decompositions for Undirected Network Design Problems
A well-known theorem of Nash-Williams and Tutte gives a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of k edge-disjoint spanning trees in an undirected graph. A corollary o...
