— We study the complexity of rationalizing network formation. In this problem we fix an underlying model describing how selfish parties (the vertices) produce a graph by making...
A frequently arising problem in computational geometry is when a physical structure, such as an ad-hoc wireless sensor network or a protein backbone, can measure local information...

Markov random field (MRF, CRF) models are popular in
computer vision. However, in order to be computationally
tractable they are limited to incorporate only local interactions

Distributed Web-server systems have been widely used to provide effective Internet services. The management of these systems requires dynamic controls of the Web traffic. With the...
A low-distortion embedding between two metric spaces is a mapping which preserves the distances between each pair of points, up to a small factor called distortion. Low-distortion...
