On Allocating Goods to Maximize Fairness
Given a set A of m agents and a set I of n items, where agent A ∈ A has utility uA,i for item i ∈ I, our goal is to allocate items to agents to maximize fairness. Specificall...

Fast Approximate Point Set Matching for Information Retrieval
We investigate randomised algorithms for subset matching with spatial point sets—given two sets of d-dimensional points: a data set T consisting of n points and a pattern P consi...

Fairness and optimality in congestion games
We study two problems, that of computing social optimum and that of finding fair allocations, in the congestion game model of Milchtaich[8] Although we show that the general prob...

Approximate common divisors via lattices
We analyze the multivariate generalization of Howgrave-Graham’s algorithm for the approximate common divisor problem. In the m-variable case with modulus N and approximate common...

Approximating sensor network queries using in-network summaries
In this work we present new in-network techniques for communication efficient approximate query processing in wireless sensornets. We use a model-based approach that constructs a...
