We establish the first nontrivial lower bounds on timespace tradeoffs for the selection problem. We prove that any comparison-based randomized algorithm for finding the median ...
We show that any deterministic data-stream algorithm that makes a constant number of passes over the input and gives a constant factor approximation of the length of the longest i...
This paper studies the fundamental trade-off between communication cost and delay cost arising in various contexts such as control message aggregation or organization theory. An o...

In this paper, we investigate the test set problem and its variations that appear in a variety of applications. In general, we are given a universe of objects to be “distinguish...
