We present a new series of distributed constraint satisfaction algorithms, the distributed breakout algorithms, which is inspired by local search algorithms for solving the constr...
Abstract. We present fast distributed algorithms for coloring and (connected) dominating set construction in wireless ad hoc networks. We present our algorithms in the context of U...
This paper introduces a new approach to database disk buffering, called the LRU–K method. The basic idea of LRU–K is to keep track of the times of the last K references to pop...

We propose two approximation algorithms for identifying communities in dynamic social networks. Communities are intuitively characterized as "unusually densely knit" sub...
For a large class of examples arising in statistical physics known as attractive spin systems (e.g., the Ising model), one seeks to sample from a probability distribution π on an...
