    The relation between special 0-1 integer linear programs (routing in VLSI circuits, multicommodity flow problems, k-matching) and their rational relaxations is studied. The authors consider a randomized rounding for transforming an optimal solution of the relaxation problem into a provably good solution for the 0-1 problem. Some probabilistic estimations about the existence of good integer solutions are derived.
