In this paper we study the capacitated vertex cover problem, a generalization of the well known vertex cover problem. Given a graph G = (V, E) with weights on the vertices, the goal is to cover all the edges by picking a cover of minimum weight from the vertices. When we pick a copy of a vertex, we pay the weight of the vertex and cover upto a pre-specified number of edges incident on this vertex (its capacity). The problem is NP-hard. We give a primal-dual based 2 approximation and study several generalizations, as well as the problem restricted to trees.
