Given an undirected graph with nonnegative edge costs and an integer k, the k-MST problem is that of finding a tree of minimum cost on k nodes. This problem is known to be NP-hard. We present a simple approximation algorithm that finds a solution whose cost is less than 17 times the cost of the opti

Given a collection I I of n jobs that are represented by intervals, we seek a maximal feasible assignment of the jobs to k machines such that not more than Ž . c M intervals overlap pairwise on any machine M and that a job is only assigned to a machine if it fits into one of several prescribed time
