Approximation Algorithms for Data Placement Problems
We develop approximation algorithms for the problem of placing replicated data in arbitrary networks, where the nodes may both issue requests for data objects and have capacity fo...

The Combined Power of Conditions and Information on Failures to Solve Asynchronous Set Agreement
Abstract. To cope with the impossibility of solving agreement problems in asynchronous systems made up of n processes and prone to t process crashes, system designers tailor their ...

Universal Limit Laws for Depths in Random Trees
Random binary search trees, b-ary search trees, median-of-(2k+1) trees, quadtrees, simplex trees, tries, and digital search trees are special cases of random split trees. For these...

Phase Change of Limit Laws in the Quicksort Recurrence under Varying Toll Functions
We characterize all limit laws of the quicksort type random variables defined recursively by Xn d = XIn + X n-1-In + Tn when the "toll function" Tn varies and satisfies ...

A Faster, Better Approximation Algorithm for the Minimum Latency Problem
We give a 7.18-approximation algorithm for the minimum latency problem that uses only O(n log n) calls to the prize-collecting Steiner tree (PCST) subroutine of Goemans and Willia...
