Using PRAM Algorithms on a Uniform-Memory-Access Shared-Memory Architecture
The ability to provide uniform shared-memory access to a significant number of processors in a single SMP node brings us much closer to the ideal PRAM parallel computer. In this pa...

An Experimental Study of Data Migration Algorithms
The data migration problem is the problem of computing a plan for moving data objects stored on devices in a network from one configuration to another. Load balancing or changing u...

Approximating the two-level facility location problem via a quasi-greedy approach
We propose a quasi-greedy algorithm for approximating the classical uncapacitated 2-level facility location problem (2-LFLP). Our algorithm, unlike the standard greedy algorithm, ...

Family trees: an ordered dictionary with optimal congestion, locality, degree, and search time
We consider the problem of storing an ordered dictionary data structure over a distributed set of nodes. In contrast to traditional sequential data structures, distributed data st...

Optimal space lower bounds for all frequency moments
We prove that any one-pass streaming algorithm which ( , )-approximates the kth frequency moment Fk, for any real k = 1 and any = 1 m , must use 1 2 bits of space, where m is th...

Approximation schemes for Metric Bisection and partitioning
We design polynomial time approximation schemes (PTASs) for Metric BISECTION, i.e. dividing a given finite metric space into two halves so as to minimize or maximize the sum of di...

Tabulation based 4-universal hashing with applications to second moment estimation
We show that 4-universal hashing can be implemented efficiently using tabulated 4-universal hashing for characters, gaining a factor of 5 in speed over the fastest existing method...
