Generalization of Binary Search: Searching in Trees and Forest-Like Partial Orders
We extend the binary search technique to searching in trees. We consider two models of queries: questions about vertices and questions about edges. We present a general approach t...

Approximation Algorithms for Non-Uniform Buy-at-Bulk Network Design
We consider approximation algorithms for non-uniform buy-at-bulk network design problems. The first nontrivial approximation algorithm for this problem is due to Charikar and Kar...

Cluster-Based Intelligent Searching in Unstructured Peer-to-Peer Networks
Existing cluster-based searching schemes in unstructured peer-to-peer (P2P) networks employ flooding/random forwarding on connected dominating sets (CDS) of networks. There exist...

A Geometric Approach to Information-Theoretic Private Information Retrieval
A t-private private information retrieval (PIR) scheme allows a user to retrieve the ith bit of an n-bit string x replicated among k servers, while any coalition of up to t server...

Concepts of Automata Construction from LTL
We present an algorithm for the conversion of very weak alternating Büchi automata into nondeterministic Büchi automata (NBA), and we introduce a local optimization criterion fo...
