Abstract

Given a directed hypergraph H=(V,E H ), we consider the problem of embedding all directed hyperedges on a weighted ring. The objective is to minimize the maximum congestion which is equal to the maximum product of the weight of a link and the number of times that the link is passed by the embedding. In this paper, we design a polynomial time approximation scheme for this problem.
