Submodular Approximation: Sampling-based Algorithms and Lower Bounds
We introduce several generalizations of classical computer science problems obtained by replacing simpler objective functions with general submodular functions. The new problems i...

System-wide energy minimization for real-time tasks: lower bound and approximation
We present a dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) technique that minimizes system-wide energy consumption for both periodic and sporadic tasks. It is known that a system consists of proc...

Toward a Model for Backtracking and Dynamic Programming
We propose a model called priority branching trees (pBT ) for backtracking and dynamic programming algorithms. Our model generalizes both the priority model of Borodin, Nielson an...

Property Testing Lower Bounds via Communication Complexity
We develop a new technique for proving lower bounds in property testing, by showing a strong connection between testing and communication complexity. We give a simple scheme for r...

Upper and Lower Bounds on Sizes of Finite Bisimulations of Pfaffian Dynamical Systems
In this paper we study a class of dynamical systems defined by Pfaffian maps. It is a sub-class of o-minimal dynamical systems which capture rich continuous dynamics and yet can be...
