Bi-objective Approximation Scheme for Makespan and Reliability Optimization on Uniform Parallel Machines
We study the problem of scheduling independent tasks on a set of related processors which have a probability of failure governed by an exponential law. We are interested in the bi-...

Almost k-wise vs. k-wise independent permutations, and uniformity for general group actions
A family of permutations in Sn is k-wise independent if a uniform permutation chosen from the family maps any distinct k elements to any distinct k elements equally likely. Effici...

Approximately uniform random sampling in sensor networks
Recent work in sensor databases has focused extensively on distributed query problems, notably distributed computation of aggregates. Existing methods for computing aggregates bro...

Almost-Uniform Sampling of Points on High-Dimensional Algebraic Varieties
We consider the problem of uniform sampling of points on an algebraic variety. Specifically, we develop a randomized algorithm that, given a small set of multivariate polynomials ...
