Abstract. The Parallel Disks Model (PDM) has been proposed to alleviate the I/O bottleneck that arises in the processing of massive data sets. Sorting has been extensively studied ...
Simulated annealing and the (1+1) EA, a simple evolutionary algorithm, are both general randomized search heuristics that optimize any objective function with probability
There are many randomized "divide and conquer" algorithms, such as randomized Quicksort, whose operation involves partitioning a problem of size n uniformly at random int...
—Random walk (RW) has been widely used as a strategy for searching in peer-to-peer networks. The boom of social network applications introduces new impact to the classical algori...
—We consider the Bayesian inference of a random Gaussian vector in a linear model with a random Gaussian matrix. We review two approaches to finding the MAP estimator for this m...
