When a phenomenon is described by a parametric model and multiple datasets are available, a key problem in statistics is to discover which datasets are characterized by the same p...
Abstract— Effective scheduling is critical for the performance of an application launched onto the Grid environment [11], [12]. Finding effective scheduling algorithms for this...
Previous work has shown that there are two major complexity barriers in the synthesis of fault-tolerant distributed programs, namely generation of fault-span, the set of states re...

We present the first constant-factor approximation algorithm for the metric k-median problem. The k-median problem is one of the most well-studied clustering problems, i.e., those...
In combinatorial optimization, a popular approach to NP-hard problems is the design of approximation algorithms. These algorithms typically run in polynomial time and are guarante...
