Optimal and Online Preemptive Scheduling on Uniformly Related Machines
We consider the problem of preemptive scheduling on uniformly related machines. We present a semi-online algorithm which, if the optimal makespan is given in advance, produces an ...

Digraphs Exploration with Little Memory
Under the robot model, we show that a robot needs Ω(n log d) bits of memory to perform exploration of digraphs with n nodes and maximum out-degree d. We then describe an algorith...

A Lower Bound on the Competitive Ratio of Truthful Auctions
We study a class of single-round, sealed-bid auctions for a set of identical items. We adopt the worst case competitive framework defined by [1,2] that compares the profit of an ...

Deterministic Truthful Approximation Mechanisms for Scheduling Related Machines
Abstract. We consider the problem of scheduling jobs on related machines owned by selfish agents and provide the first deterministic mechanisms with constant approximation that a...
