Binary Searching with Nonuniform Costs and Its Application to Text Retrieval
We study the problem of minimizing the expected cost of binary searching for data where the access cost is not fixed and depends on the last accessed element, such as data stored i...

On Binary Searching with Nonuniform Costs
Let us consider an ordered vector A[1 : n]. If the cost of testing each position is similar, then the standard binary search is the best strategy to search the vector. This is true...

The LAMA Planner: Guiding Cost-Based Anytime Planning with Landmarks
LAMA is a classical planning system based on heuristic forward search. Its core feature is the use of a pseudo-heuristic derived from landmarks, propositional formulas that must b...

The cost of offline binary search tree algorithms and the complexity of the request sequence
In evaluating the performance of online algorithms for search trees, one wants to compare them to the best offline algorithm available. In this paper we lower bound the cost of an...
