Global optimization for the synthesis of integrated water systems in chemical processes
In this paper, we address the problem of optimal synthesis of an integrated water system, where water using processes and water treatment operations are combined into a single net...

On the Power of Randomization in Algorithmic Mechanism Design
In many settings the power of truthful mechanisms is severely bounded. In this paper we use randomization to overcome this problem. In particular, we construct an FPTAS for multi-...

Locally constructed algorithms for distributed computations in ad-hoc networks
In this paper we develop algorithms for distributed computation of a broad range of estimation and detection tasks over networks with arbitrary but fixed connectivity. The distri...
