Preference elicitation — the process of asking queries to determine parties’ preferences — is a key part of many problems in electronic commerce. For example, a shopping age...
We want to perform compile-time analysis of an SPMD program and place barriers in it to synchronize it correctly, minimizing the runtime cost of the synchronization. This is the b...
The presence of uncertainty in the real world makes robustness to be a desired property of solutions to constraint satisfaction problems. Roughly speaking, a solution is robust if...
