Compiler-Directed Program-Fault Coverage for Highly Available Java Internet Services
Abstract: We present a new approach that uses compilerdirected fault-injection for coverage testing of recovery code in Internet services to evaluate their robustness to operating ...

A Lattice Problem in Quantum NP
We consider coGapSV P√ n, a gap version of the shortest vector in a lattice problem. This problem is known to be in AM ∩coNP but is not known to be in NP or in MA. We prove th...

Always Good Turing: Asymptotically Optimal Probability Estimation
While deciphering the Enigma Code during World War II, I.J. Good and A.M. Turing considered the problem of estimating a probability distribution from a sample of data. They derive...

Covering Problems with Hard Capacities
We consider the classical vertex cover and set cover problems with the addition of hard capacity constraints. This means that a set (vertex) can only cover a limited number of its...

The Hardness of 3 - Uniform Hypergraph Coloring
We prove that coloring a 3-uniform 2-colorable hypergraph with c colors is NP-hard for any constant c. The best known algorithm [20] colors such a graph using O(n1/5 ) colors. Our...
