Minimizing Average Flow-Time
We consider the problem of minimizing average flow time on multiple machines when each job can be assigned only to a specified subset of the machines. This is a special case of sc...

On the complexity of scheduling in wireless networks
We consider the problem of throughput-optimal scheduling in wireless networks subject to interference constraints. We model the interference using a family of K-hop interference m...

An Efficient Boundary Encoding Scheme which is Optimal in the Rate-Distortion Sense
In this paper, we present a fast and optimal method for the lossy encoding of object boundaries which are given as 8-connect chain codes. We approximate the boundary by a polygon ...
