Of Choices, Failures and Asynchrony: The Many Faces of Set Agreement
Abstract. Set agreement is a fundamental problem in distributed computing in which processes collectively choose a small subset of values from a larger set of proposals. The imposs...

Computing the Greedy Spanner in Near-Quadratic Time
It is well-known that the greedy algorithm produces high quality spanners and therefore is used in several applications. However, for points in d-dimensional Euclidean space, the g...

Precise Interval Analysis vs. Parity Games
In [?], a practical algorithm for precise interval analysis is provided for which, however, no non-trivial upper complexity bound is known. Here, we present a lower bound by showin...

Logarithmic hardness of the directed congestion minimization problem
We show that for any constant ε > 0, there is no Ω(log1−ε M)approximation algorithm for the directed congestion minimization problem on networks of size M unless NP ⊆ Z...

Bucket elimination: A unifying framework for probabilistic inference
Probabilistic inference algorithms for belief updating, nding the most probable explanation, the maximum a posteriori hypothesis, and the maximum expected utility are reformulated...
