The Efficiency of Resolution and Davis--Putnam Procedures
We consider several problems related to the use of resolution-based methods for determining whether a given boolean formula in conjunctive normal form is satisfiable. First, build...

Effective categoricity of equivalence structures
We investigate effective categoricity of computable equivalence structures A. We show that A is computably categorical if and only if A has only finitely many finite equivalence c...

On the relationship between file sizes, transport protocols, and self-similar network traffic
Recent measurements of local-area and wide-area traffic have shown that network traffic exhibits variability at a wide range of scales. In this paper, we examine a mechanism that ...

Learning Intersections and Thresholds of Halfspaces
We give the first polynomial time algorithm to learn any function of a constant number of halfspaces under the uniform distribution on the Boolean hypercube to within any constan...

Learning DNF from Random Walks
We consider a model of learning Boolean functions from examples generated by a uniform random walk on {0, 1}n . We give a polynomial time algorithm for learning decision trees and...

Interprocedural compatibility analysis for static object preallocation
We present an interprocedural and compositional algorithm for finding pairs of compatible allocation sites, which have the property that no object allocated at one site is live at...

Tracking Objects Using Recognition
Tracking is frequently considered a frame-to-frame operation. As such, object recognition techniques are generally too slow to be used for tracking. There are domains, however, wh...
