We introduce several generalizations of classical computer science problems obtained by replacing simpler objective functions with general submodular functions. The new problems i...
Given a sequence of n real numbers a1, a2, a3, . . . , an, the maximum segment sum problem is that of determining indices i and j (1 ≤ i ≤ j ≤ n) such that the sum s(i, j) =...
This paper presents an algorithm to bound the bandwidth of a Web crawler. The crawler collects statistics on the transfer rate of each server to predict the expected bandwidth use...
