A Competitive Algorithm for the General 2-Server Problem
We consider the general on-line two server problem in which at each step both servers receive a request, which is a point in a metric space. One of the servers has to be moved to i...

Circular partitions with applications to visualization and embeddings
We introduce a hierarchical partitioning scheme of the Euclidean plane, called circular partitions. Such a partition consists of a hierarchy of convex polygons, each having small ...

Efficient reverse k-nearest neighbor search in arbitrary metric spaces
The reverse k-nearest neighbor (RkNN) problem, i.e. finding all objects in a data set the k-nearest neighbors of which include a specified query object, is a generalization of the...

Automatic sensor placement in a 3D volume
Given a 3D environment, a set of constraints, and a set of sensor models, this paper addresses the problem of finding the set of sensors and their corresponding placement that cov...

A tight bound on approximating arbitrary metrics by tree metrics
In this paper, we show that any n point metric space can be embedded into a distribution over dominating tree metrics such that the expected stretch of any edge is O(log n). This ...
