No-commitment branch and bound search for distributed constraint optimization
We present a new polynomial-space algorithm for solving Distributed Constraint Optimization problems (DCOP). The algorithm, called NCBB, is branch and bound search with modificati...

Balance Scheduling: Weighting Branch Tradeoffs in Superblocks
Since there is generally insufficient instruction level parallelism within a single basic block, higher performance is achieved by speculatively scheduling operations in superbloc...

Almost optimum placement legalization by minimum cost flow and dynamic programming
VLSI placement tools usually work in two steps: First, the cells that have to be placed are roughly spread out over the chip area ignoring disjointness (global placement). Then, i...

Non-malleable extractors and symmetric key cryptography from weak secrets
We study the question of basing symmetric key cryptography on weak secrets. In this setting, Alice and Bob share an n-bit secret W, which might not be uniformly random, but the ad...
