We prove that for any positive integer k, there is a constant ck such that a randomly selected set of cknk log n Boolean vectors with high probability supports a balanced k-wise i...
There has been considerable interest in random projections, an approximate algorithm for estimating distances between pairs of points in a high-dimensional vector space. Let A Rn...
We present a framework for applying memoization selectively. The framework provides programmer control over equality, space usage, and identification of precise dependences so tha...
In this paper, we present an approach to global transactionmanagementinworkflowenvironments.Thetransaction mechanism is based on the well-known notion of compensation, but extended...

We study complexity and approximation of queries in an expressive query language for probabilistic databases. The language studied supports the compositional use of confidence com...
