We give a general technique to obtain approximation mechanisms that are truthful in expectation. We show that for packing domains, any α-approximation algorithm that also bounds ...
A function on n variables is called a k-junta if it depends on at most k of its variables. In this article, we show that it is possible to test whether a function is a k-junta or ...
Data Warehousing and OLAPapplications typically view data as having multiple logical dimensions e.g., product, location with natural hierarchies de ned on each dimension. OLAP que...
