The family of Vickrey-Clarke-Groves (VCG) mechanisms is arguably the most celebrated achievement in truthful mechanism design. However, VCG mechanisms have their limitations. They...
Given concentrations of metabolites over a sequence of time steps, the metabolic pathway prediction problem seeks a set of reactions and rate constants for them that could yield t...
Data access prediction has been proposed as a mechanism to overcome latency lag, and more recently as a means of conserving energy in mobile systems. We present a fully adaptive p...
