We consider the problem of testing whether the maximum additive integrality gap of a family of integer programs in standard form is bounded by a given constant. This can be viewed...

We investigate the preemptive scheduling of periodic tasks with hard deadlines. We show that, even in the uniprocessor case, no polynomial time algorithm can test the feasibility ...

Many NP-hard problems can be solved efficiently when the input is restricted to graphs of bounded tree-width or clique-width. In particular, by the celebrated result of Courcelle,...

We give an O(n lg n)-time algorithm for counting the number of inversions in a permutation on n elements. This improves a long-standing previous bound of O(n lg n/ lg lg n) that ...

Many commonly-used auction mechanisms are "maximal-in-range". We show that any maximalin-range mechanism for n bidders and m items cannot both approximate the social wel...
