Scalable and dynamic quorum systems
We investigate issues related to the probe complexity of quorum systems and their implementation in a dynamic environment. Our contribution is twofold. The first regards the algo...

Generating Counter-Examples Through Randomized Guided Search
Abstract. Computational resources are increasing rapidly with the explosion of multi-core processors readily available from major vendors. Model checking needs to harness these res...

Hierarchical Placement and Network Design Problems
In this paper, we give the first constant-approximations for a number of layered network design problems. We begin by modeling hierarchical caching, where caches are placed in la...

The Queue-Read Queue-Write PRAM Model: Accounting for Contention in Parallel Algorithms
This paper introduces the queue-read, queue-write (qrqw) parallel random access machine (pram) model, which permits concurrent reading and writing to shared memory locations, but ...

The average-case complexity of counting distinct elements
We continue the study of approximating the number of distinct elements in a data stream of length n to within a (1? ) factor. It is known that if the stream may consist of arbitra...
