Black-Box Randomized Reductions in Algorithmic Mechanism Design
We give the first black-box reduction from arbitrary approximation algorithms to truthful approximation mechanisms for a non-trivial class of multiparameter problems. Specifically,...

Optimal Auctions with Correlated Bidders are Easy
We consider the problem of designing a revenue-maximizing auction for a single item, when the values of the bidders are drawn from a correlated distribution. We observe that there...

Token Loss Detection for Random Walk based Algorithm
Self-stabilizing token circulation algorithms are not always adapted for dynamic networks. Random walks are well known to play a crucial role in the design of randomized algorithm...

Probability Distribution of Solution Time in GRASP: An Experimental Investigation
A GRASP (greedy randomized adaptive search procedure) is a multi-start metaheuristic for combinatorial optimization. We study the probability distributions of solution time to a su...

A demand-driven adaptive type analysis
Compilers for dynamically and statically typed languages ensure safe execution by verifying that all operations are performed on appropriate values. An operation as simple as car ...
