The delay and throughput characteristics of a packet switch depend mainly on the queueing scheme and the scheduling algorithm deployed at the switch. Early research on scheduling ...
Abstract. We present a first constant performance guarantee for preemptive stochastic scheduling to minimize the sum of weighted completion times. For scheduling jobs with release ...
Motivated by online ad allocation, we study the problem of simultaneous approximations for the adversarial and stochastic online budgeted allocation problem. This problem consists...

We propose two approximation algorithms for identifying communities in dynamic social networks. Communities are intuitively characterized as "unusually densely knit" sub...
As a global feature of fingerprint, orientation field is very important to automatic fingerprint identification system (AFIS). Establishing an accurate and concise model for orien...
