We present a linear programming-based method for nding \gadgets", i.e., combinatorial structures reducing constraints of one optimization problem to constraints of another. A...

We investigate a conjecture stated by Coffman, Flatto, and Wright within the context of a stochastic machine minimization problem with a hard deadline. We prove that the conjecture...
The bipartite crossing number problem is studied, and a connection between this problem and the linear arrangement problem is established. It is shown that when the arboricity is ...
This paper describes a scheme to implement a shared address space of size m on an n-node mesh, with m polynomial in n, where each mesh node hosts a processor and a memory module. A...

This paper presents a lower bound of (D + n/ log n) on the time required for the distributed construction of a minimum-weight spanning tree (MST) in weighted n-vertex networks of ...
There are several results available in the literature dealing with efficient construction of t-spanners for a given set S of n points in Rd. t-spanners are Euclidean graphs in whic...
This paper puts forward a new notion of a proof based on computational complexity and explores its implications for computation at large. Computationally sound proofs provide, in a...
This paper studies various algorithmic issues in reconstructing a species tree from gene trees under the duplication and the mutation cost model. This is a fundamental problem in c...
ct Consider an arbitrary program P which is to be executed on a computer with two alternative cache memories. The rst cache has k sets and u blocks in each set, this is denoted a ...
