Abstract: "We present a simple randomized algorithm for approximating permanents of random (0-1) matrices. The algorithm with inputs a, [epsilon]> 0 produces an output X[subscript A] with (1-[epsilon])per(A) [or =] X[subscript A] [or =] (1 + [epsilon])per(A) for almost all (0-1) matrices A. For every positive constant [epsilon] 0, the algorithm runs in time O(n2[omega]), i.e., almost linear in the size of the matrix, where [omega] = [omega](n) is any function satisfying [omega](n) - [infinity] as n -> [infinity]. This improves the previous bound of O(n3[infinity]) for such matrices."

This book constitutes the joint refereed proceedings of the 11th International Workshop on Approximation Algorithms for Combinatorial Optimization Problems, APPROX 2008 and the 12th International Workshop on Randomization and Computation, RANDOM 2008, held in Boston, MA, USA, in August 2008. The 20 revised full papers of the APPROX 2008 workshop were carefully reviewed and selected from 42 submissions and focus on algorithmic and complexity issues surrounding the development of efficient approximate solutions to computationally difficult problems. RANDOM 2008 is concerned with applications of randomness to computational and combinatorial problems and accounts for 27 revised full papers, also diligently reviewed and selected out of 52 workshop submissions.
