We consider ranking and clustering problems related to the aggregation of inconsistent information. Ailon, Charikar, and Newman [1] proposed randomized constant factor approximatio...
Designers of distributed systems often rely on replicas for increased robustness, scalability, and performance. Replicated server architectures require some technique to select a ...
— The input-queued switch architecture is widely used in Internet routers, due to its ability to run at very high line speeds. A central problem in designing an input-queued swit...
In [AKL10], we showed how viewing online algorithms as reactive systems enables the application of ideas from formal verification to the competitive analysis of online algorithms....
The data migration problem is to compute an efficient plan for moving data stored on devices in a network from one configuration to another. It is modeled by a transfer graph, wher...
