We exhibit an explicitly computable ‘pseudorandom’ generator stretching l bits into m(l) = lΩ(log l) bits that look random to constant-depth circuits of size m(l) with log m...
Abstract. We consider random tries and random patricia trees constructed from n independent strings of symbols drawn from any distribution on any discrete space. We show that many ...
This paper presents a randomized scheduler for finding concurrency bugs. Like current stress-testing methods, it repeatedly runs a given test program with supplied inputs. Howeve...

Social networks support efficient decentralized search: people can collectively construct short paths to a specified target in the network. Rank-based friendship—where the prob...

Capturing detailed surface geometry currently requires specialized equipment such as laser range scanners, which despite their high accuracy, leave gaps in the surfaces that must ...
