Approximate distributed top- k queries
We consider a distributed system where each node keeps a local count for items (similar to elections where nodes are ballot boxes and items are candidates). A top-k query in such ...

Near-optimal network design with selfish agents
We introduce a simple network design game that models how independent selfish agents can build or maintain a large network. In our game every agent has a specific connectivity requ...

A tight bound on approximating arbitrary metrics by tree metrics
In this paper, we show that any n point metric space can be embedded into a distribution over dominating tree metrics such that the expected stretch of any edge is O(log n). This ...

Localized Access Point Association in Wireless LANs with Bounded Approximation Ratio
— The current access point (AP) association schemes in wireless LANs, such as IEEE 802.11, cause an unbalanced load which reduces the performance of both the entire network and i...

Fast and Compact Oracles for Approximate Distances in Planar Graphs
We present an experimental evaluation of an approximate distance oracle recently suggested by Thorup [1] for undirected planar graphs. The oracle uses the existence of graph separa...
