Faster approximation algorithms for the minimum latency problem
We give a 7.18-approximation algorithm for the minimum latency problem that uses only O(n log n) calls to the prize-collecting Steiner tree (PCST) subroutine of Goemans and Willia...

Competitive queueing policies for QoS switches
We consider packet scheduling in a network providing differentiated services, where each packet is assigned a value. We study various queueing models for supporting QoS (Quality ...

The set-associative cache performance of search trees
We consider the costs of access to data stored in search trees assuming that those memory accesses are managed with a cache. Our cache memory model is two-level, has a small degre...

Dynamic Representations and Escaping Local Optima: Improving Genetic Algorithms and Local Search
Local search algorithms often get trapped in local optima. Algorithms such as tabu search and simulated annealing 'escape' local optima by accepting nonimproving moves. ...
