True costs of cheap labor are hard to measure: edge deletion and VCG payments in graphs
We address the problem of lowering the buyer’s expected payments in shortest path auctions, where the buyer’s goal is to purchase a path in a graph in which edges are owned by...

Computing pure strategy nash equilibria in compact symmetric games
We analyze the complexity of computing pure strategy Nash equilibria (PSNE) in symmetric games with a fixed number of actions. We restrict ourselves to “compact” representati...

Experimental evaluation of N-tier systems: Observation and analysis of multi-bottlenecks
In many areas such as e-commerce, mission-critical N-tier applications have grown increasingly complex. They are characterized by non-stationary workloads (e.g., peak load several...

The number of lines tangent to arbitrary convex polyhedra in 3D
We prove that the lines tangent to four possibly intersecting convex polyhedra in   3 with n edges in total form Θ(n2 ) connected components in the worst case. In the generic ca...
