Temporal Reasoning with Constraints on Fluents and Events
We propose a propositional language for temporal reasoning that is computationally effective yet expressive enough to describe information about fluents, events and temporal const...

Matching of Bigraphs
We analyze the matching problem for bigraphs. In particular, we present a sound and complete inductive characterization of matching of binding bigraphs. Our results pave the way f...

Lower Bounds for Smith's Rule in Stochastic Machine Scheduling
We consider the problem to minimize the weighted sum of completion times in nonpreemptive parallel machine scheduling. In a landmark paper from 1986, Kawaguchi and Kyan [5] showed ...

Terminating Decision Algorithms Optimally
Incomplete decision algorithms can often solve larger problem instances than complete ones. The drawback is that one does not know whether the algorithm will finish soon, later, ...

A scalable hash ripple join algorithm
Recently, Haas and Hellerstein proposed the hash ripple join algorithm in the context of online aggregation. Although the algorithm rapidly gives a good estimate for many join-agg...
