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...

Some novel locality results for the blob code spanning tree representation
The Blob Code is a bijective tree code that represents each tree on n labelled vertices as a string of n − 2 vertex labels. In recent years, several researchers have deployed th...

Input modeling using a computer algebra system
Input modeling that involves fitting standard univariate parametric probability distributions is typically performed using an input modeling package. These packages typically fit ...

The "DGX" distribution for mining massive, skewed data
Skewed distributions appear very often in practice. Unfortunately, the traditional Zipf distribution often fails to model them well. In this paper, we propose a new probability di...

Differentially private aggregation of distributed time-series with transformation and encryption
We propose PASTE, the first differentially private aggregation algorithms for distributed time-series data that offer good practical utility without any trusted server. PASTE add...
