Nonclairvoyant Speed Scaling for Flow and Energy
We study online nonclairvoyant speed scaling to minimize total flow time plus energy. We first consider the traditional model where the power function is P(s) = sα . We give a ...

Hardness and Algorithms for Rainbow Connectivity
An edge-colored graph G is rainbow connected if any two vertices are connected by a path whose edges have distinct colors. The rainbow connectivity of a connected graph G, denoted ...

Polynomial-Time Approximation Schemes for Subset-Connectivity Problems in Bounded-Genus Graphs
We present the first polynomial-time approximation schemes (PTASes) for the following subset-connectivity problems in edge-weighted graphs of bounded genus: Steiner tree, low-conn...

On the Average Complexity of Moore's State Minimization Algorithm
Abstract. We prove that, for any arbitrary finite alphabet and for the uniform distribution over deterministic and accessible automata with n states, the average complexity of Moo...
