Abstract. In the context of non-coding RNA (ncRNA) multiple structural alignment, Davydov and Batzoglou introduced in [7] the problem of finding the largest nested linear graph tha...
Abstract. Genome sequencing will soon produce haplotype data for individuals. For pedigrees of related individuals, sequencing appears to be an attractive alternative to genotyping...
We describe a general technique for converting an online algorithm B to a truthtelling mechanism. We require that the original online competitive algorithm has certain "nicen...
Previous studies have highlighted the high arrival rate of new content on the web. We study the extent to which this new content can be efficiently discovered by a crawler. Our st...
