Abstract. Randomization is of paramount importance in practical applications and randomized algorithms are used widely, for example in co-ordinating distributed computer networks, ...
We prove that the First Fit bin packing algorithm is stable under the input distribution U{k - 2, k} for all k 3, settling an open question from the recent survey by Coffman, Gar...
In this paper we develop models for and analyze several randomized work stealing algorithms in a dynamic setting. Our models represent the limiting behavior of systems as the numb...
In this paper, we study online algorithms when the input is not chosen adversarially, but consists of draws from some given probability distribution. While this model has been stu...
Background: Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) is a computational method for the statistical evaluation of sorted lists of genes or proteins. Originally GSEA was developed for in...
