Energy-efficiency has been an important system issue in hardware and software designs to extend operation duration or cut power bills. This research explores systems with probabil...
Running the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), the Internet’s interdomain routing protocol, consumes a large amount of memory. A BGP-speaking router typically stores one or more rou...
We give an O(n lg n)-time algorithm for counting the number of inversions in a permutation on n elements. This improves a long-standing previous bound of O(n lg n/ lg lg n) that ...
Abstract. We study online scheduling to minimize flow time plus energy usage in the dynamic speed scaling model. We devise new speed scaling functions that depend on the number of ...

We propose two new online methods for estimating the size of a backtracking search tree. The first method is based on a weighted sample of the branches visited by chronological ba...
