A major challenge in Metacomputing Systems (Computational Grids) is to effectively use their shared resources, such as compute cycles, memory, communication network, and data repo...

Efficient communication in Bluetooth scatternets requires design of intra and inter-piconet scheduling algorithms, and therefore numerous algorithms have been proposed. However, du...
We study the problem of designing truthful algorithms for scheduling a set of tasks, each one owned by a selfish agent, to a set of parallel (identical or unrelated) machines in or...
We present a unified optimal semi-online algorithm for preemptive scheduling on uniformly related machines with the objective to minimize the makespan. This algorithm works for a...
We study the subsequence packing problem: given a string T and a collection of strings {Si}, find disjoint subsequences {Ti} of T with maximum total length such that each Ti is a ...
