In this paper, we initiate the study of the approximability of the facility location problem in a distributed setting. In particular, we explore a trade-off between the amount of...
Data-flow analysis is an integral part of any aggressive optimizing compiler. We propose a framework for improving the precision of data-flow analysis in the presence of complex c...
We consider scheduling problems in which a job consists of components of different types to be processed on m machines. Each machine is capable of processing components of a singl...
We present several e cient algorithms for sorting on the uniform memory hierarchy UMH, introduced by Alpern, Carter, and Feig, and its parallelization P-UMH. We give optimal and ne...
A key characteristic of today’s high performance computing systems is a physically distributed memory, which makes the efficient management of locality essential for taking adv...
