Solving the ignoring problem for partial order reduction
Abstract. Partial order reduction limits the state explosion problem that arises in model checking by limiting the exploration of redundant interleavings. A state space search algo...

Temporally-aware algorithms for document classification
Automatic Document Classification (ADC) is still one of the major information retrieval problems. It usually employs a supervised learning strategy, where we first build a classif...

A Randomized Cutting Plane Method with Probabilistic Geometric Convergence
Abstract. We propose a randomized method for general convex optimization problems; namely, the minimization of a linear function over a convex body. The idea is to generate N rando...

A New Exchange Method for Convex Semi-Infinite Programming
In this paper we propose a new exchange method for solving convex semi-infinite programming (CSIP) problems. We introduce a new dropping-rule in the proposed exchange algorithm, wh...

Obnoxious Centers in Graphs
We consider the problem of finding obnoxious centers in graphs. For arbitrary graphs with n vertices and m edges, we give a randomized algorithm with O(n log2 n + m log n) expecte...

Lower Bounds for Randomized Consensus under a Weak Adversary
This paper studies the inherent trade-off between termination probability and total step complexity of randomized consensus algorithms. It shows that for every integer k, the prob...

Server Scheduling to Balance Priorities, Fairness, and Average Quality of Service
Often server systems do not implement the best known algorithms for optimizing average Quality of Service (QoS) out of concern of that these algorithms may be insufficiently fair ...

Time Integration and Steady-State Continuation for 2d Lubrication Equations
Lubrication equations describe many structuring processes of thin liquid films. We develop and apply a numerical framework suitable for their analysis employing a dynamical systems...

A High-Level Language for Modeling Algorithms and Their Properties
Designers of concurrent and distributed algorithms usually express them using pseudo-code. In contrast, most verification techniques are based on more mathematically-oriented forma...
