We introduce the distributed gradient clock synchronization problem. As in traditional distributed clock synchronization, we consider a network of nodes equipped with hardware clo...
We present a novel distributed algorithm for the maximal independent set (MIS) problem.1 On bounded-independence graphs (BIG) our deterministic algorithm finishes in O(log n) time,...
Missing values in inputs, outputs cannot be handled by the original data envelopment analysis (DEA) models. In this paper we introduce an approach based on interval DEA that allow...

In [GL] it was shown that a polytope with few vertices is far from being symmetric in the Banach-Mazur distance. More precisely, it was shown that Banach-Mazur distance between su...
Query optimizers that explore a search space exhaustively using transformation rules usually apply all possible rules on each alternative, and stop when no new information is prod...
