Fast load balancing via bounded best response
It is known that the dynamics of best response in an environment of non-cooperative users may converge to a good solution when users play sequentially, but may cycle far away from...

Minimum weight convex Steiner partitions
New tight bounds are presented on the minimum length of planar straight line graphs connecting n given points in the plane and having convex faces. Specifically, we show that the ...

Earth mover distance over high-dimensional spaces
The Earth Mover Distance (EMD) between two equalsize sets of points in Rd is defined to be the minimum cost of a bipartite matching between the two pointsets. It is a natural metr...

On distance to monotonicity and longest increasing subsequence of a data stream
In this paper we consider problems related to the sortedness of a data stream. First we investigate the problem of estimating the distance to monotonicity; given a sequence of len...
