Approximation Algorithms for Allocation and Network Design

In this thesis, we give new approximation algorithms for some NP-hard problems arising in resource allocation and network design. As a resource allocation problem, we study the Santa Claus problem (also known as the MaxMin Fair Allocation problem) in which ...

Discrete Optimal Transport with Independent Marginals is #P-Hard

Daniel Kuhn, Soroosh Shafieezadeh Abadeh, Bahar Taskesen

We study the computational complexity of the optimal transport problem that evaluates the Wasser- stein distance between the distributions of two K-dimensional discrete random vectors. The best known algorithms for this problem run in polynomial time in th ...

Beyond Local Optimality of Buffer and Splitter Insertion for AQFP Circuits

Giovanni De Micheli, Heinz Riener, Siang-Yun Lee

Adiabatic quantum-flux parametron (AQFP) is an energy-efficient superconducting technology. Buffer and splitter (B/S) cells must be inserted to an AQFP circuit to meet the technology-imposed constraints on path balancing and fanout branching. These cells a ...

Computational tool for stock-constrained design of structures

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Jonas Warmuth, Jan Friedrich Georg Brütting

Designing structures from reused elements is becoming an increasingly important design task for structural engineers as it has potential to significantly reduce adverse environmental impacts of building structures. To allow for a broad application of this ...

A (2+epsilon)-Approximation Algorithm for Preemptive Weighted Flow Time on a Single Machine

Lars Rohwedder

Weighted flow time is a fundamental and very well-studied objective function in scheduling. In this paper, we study the setting of a single machine with preemptions. The input consists of a set of jobs, characterized by their processing times, release time ...

Efficient Sequential and Parallel Algorithms for Multistage Stochastic Integer Programming Using Proximity

Friedrich Eisenbrand, Moritz Andreas Venzin, Jana Tabea Cslovjecsek

We consider the problem of solving integer programs of the form min {c^⊺ x : Ax = b, x ∈ ℤ_{⩾ 0}}, where A is a multistage stochastic matrix in the following sense: the primal treedepth of A is bounded by a parameter d, which means that the columns of A ca ...

Vessel scheduling with pilotage and tugging considerations

Michel Bierlaire

This paper considers vessel scheduling with pilotage and tugging constraints in berthing operations with channel restrictions at seaports. To our knowledge, pilotage and tugging requirements have not been simultaneously considered in the literature. This w ...

AKSEL: Fast Byzantine SGD

Rachid Guerraoui, El Mahdi El Mhamdi, Alexandre David Olivier Maurer, Sébastien Louis Alexandre Rouault

Modern machine learning architectures distinguish servers and workers. Typically, a d-dimensional model is hosted by a server and trained by n workers, using a distributed stochastic gradient descent (SGD) optimization scheme. At each SGD step, the goal is ...

New Results in Integer and Lattice Programming

Christoph Hunkenschröder

An integer program (IP) is a problem of the form

\min \{f(x) : \, Ax = b, \ l \leq x \leq u, \ x \in \Z^n\}

, where

A \in \Z^{m \times n}

,

b \in \Z^m

,

l,u \in \Z^n

, and

f: \Z^n \rightarrow \Z

is a separable convex objective function. The problem o ...

A note on the integrality gap of the configuration LP for restricted Santa Claus

Klaus Jansen, Lars Rohwedder

In the restricted Santa Claus problem we are given resources R and players P. Every resource j is an element of R. has a value v(j) and every player i is an element of P desires a set of resources R(i). We are interested in distributing the resources to pl ...
