Distinguishing transient blocks from frequently used blocks enables servicing references to transient blocks from a small fully-associative auxiliary cache structure. By inserting...
We study selectivity estimation techniques for set similarity queries. A wide variety of similarity measures for sets have been proposed in the past. In this work we concentrate o...

We characterize all limit laws of the quicksort type random variables defined recursively by Xn d = XIn + X n-1-In + Tn when the "toll function" Tn varies and satisfies ...
In this paper we show the power of sampling techniques in designing efficient distributed algorithms. In particular, we show that using sampling techniques, on some networks, sele...
— In this paper, we address an optimization problem that arises in context of cache placement in sensor networks. In particular, we consider the cache placement problem where the...
