We introduce a new synchronization problem in mobile ad-hoc systems: the Driving Philosophers. In this problem, an unbounded number of driving philosophers (processes) access a rou...
In [1], Jejurikar and Gupta investigated energy savings due to optimal slowdown of periodic tasks in real-time task systems, where tasks have varying power characteristics and task...
We present a series of related robust optimization models for placing sensors in municipal water networks to detect contaminants that are maliciously or accidentally injected. We f...

This paper highlights a phenomenon that causes deductively learned knowledge to be harmful when used for problem solving. The problem occurs when deductive problem solvers encount...
We propose a programming paradigm called compress-and-conquer (CC) that leads to optimal performance on multicore platforms. Given a multicore system of p cores and a problem of s...
