Research Abstract |
Problems that aim to maximize certain kinds of profit or minimize certain kinds of cost are ubiquitous in the real world. Such problems are called optimization problems and most of them are computationally hard. A well-used approach to hard optimization problems is approximation(which aims to find near-optimal solutions efficiently). In this project, we combine this approach with two other powerful approaches(namely, randomization and parallelization) and apply the resulting hybrid approach to several hard optimization problems. As the results, we have obtained more efficient algorithms for the hard problems than the previous bests.
