Randomized Local Search, Evolutionary Algorithms, and the Minimum Spanning Tree Problem
Randomized search heuristics, among them randomized local search and evolutionary algorithms, are applied to problems whose structure is not well understood, as well as to problems...

Derandomizing Algorithms for Routing and Sorting on Meshes
We describe a new technique that can be used to derandomize a number of randomized algorithms for routing and sorting on meshes. We demonstrate the power of this technique by deri...

Distribution sort with randomized cycling
Parallel independent disks can enhance the performance of external memory (EM) algorithms, but the programming task is often di cult. In this paper we develop randomized variants ...

Sorting and Selection with Random Costs
There is a growing body of work on sorting and selection in models other than the unit-cost comparison model. This work treats a natural stochastic variant of the problem where the...

Low-end uniform hardness vs. randomness tradeoffs for AM
In 1998, Impagliazzo and Wigderson [IW98] proved a hardness vs. randomness tradeoff for BPP in the uniform setting, which was subsequently extended to give optimal tradeoffs for t...
