MIS on trees
A maximal independent set on a graph is an inclusion-maximal set of mutually non-adjacent nodes. This basic symmetry breaking structure is vital for many distributed algorithms, w...

A characterization of easily testable induced subgraphs
Let H be a fixed graph on h vertices. We say that a graph G is induced H-free if it does not contain any induced copy of H. Let G be a graph on n vertices and suppose that at leas...

Fundamental scaling laws for energy-efficient storage and querying in wireless sensor networks
We use a constrained optimization framework to derive fundamental scaling laws for both unstructured sensor networks (which use blind sequential search for querying) and structure...

Combinatorial Auctions with Structured Item Graphs
Combinatorial auctions (CAs) are important mechanisms for allocating interrelated items. Unfortunately, winner determination is NP-complete unless there is special structure. We s...

Projection Pushing Revisited
The join operation, which combines tuples from multiple relations, is the most fundamental and, typically, the most expensive operation in database queries. The standard approach t...
