We investigate the problem of monotonicity reconstruction, as defined in [3], in a parallel setting. We have oracle access to a nonnegative real-valued function f defined on domai...
We show a tight lower bound of (N log log N) on the number of transmission required to compute the parity of N bits (with constant error) in a network of N randomly placed sensors...

We present greedy algorithms for some classes of combinatorial packing and cover problems within the general formal framework of Hoffman and Schwartz' lattice polyhedra. Our ...
Bisubmodular functions are a natural "directed", or "signed", extension of submodular functions with several applications. Recently Fujishige and Iwata showed ...
We study a generalization of the k-median problem with respect to an arbitrary dissimilarity measure D. Given a finite set P, our goal is to find a set C of size k such that the s...
We study the problem of scheduling permanent jobs on unrelated machines when the objective is to minimize the Lp norm of the machine loads. The problem is known as load balancing ...
This paper presents a multicore-cache model that reflects the reality that multicore processors have both per-processor private (L1) caches and a large shared (L2) cache on chip. ...
