This paper suggests that, to match an ideal Internet gateway which rigorously enforces fair sharing among competing TCP connections, an ideal TCP sender should possess two propert...
Speculation is an every day phenomenon whereby one acts in anticipation of particular conditions that are likely to hold in the future. Computer science research has seen many suc...
The problem of carrying out cryptographic computations when the participating parties are rational in a game-theoretic sense has recently gained much attention. One problem that h...
We give a simple framework which is an alternative to the celebrated and widely used shifting strategy of Hochbaum and Maass [J. ACM, 1985] which has yielded efficient algorithms ...
The min-sum k-clustering problem is to partition a metric space (P, d) into k clusters C1, . . . , Ck ⊆ P such that k i=1 p,q∈Ci d(p, q) is minimized. We show the first effi...
