We investigate the preemptive scheduling of periodic tasks with hard deadlines. We show that, even in the uniprocessor case, no polynomial time algorithm can test the feasibility ...

The linear deterministic model of relay channels is a generalization of the traditional directed network model which has become popular in the study of the flow of information ove...
If a two-player social welfare maximization problem does not admit a PTAS, we prove that any maximal-in-range truthful mechanism that runs in polynomial time cannot achieve an app...
We describe an algorithm for computing planar convex hulls in the self-improving model: given a sequence I1, I2, . . . of planar n-point sets, the upper convex hull conv(I) of eac...

We introduce the problem of shape replication in the Wang tile self-assembly model. Given an input shape, we consider the problem of designing a self-assembly system which will re...
