: We study the design of mechanisms in combinatorial auction domains. We focus on settings where the auction is repeated, motivated by auctions for licenses or advertising space. W...
We show that a k-fold covering using translates of an arbitrary convex polygon can be decomposed into Omega(k) covers (using an efficient algorithm). We generalize this result to ...
The normalized number of key comparisons needed to sort a list of randomly permuted items by the Quicksort algorithm is known to converge in distribution. We identify the rate of ...
This paper describes a program, called NEWTON, that finds approximate symbolic solutions to parameterized equations in one variable. N E W T O N derives an initial approximation b...
The rapid adoption of XML as the standard for data representation and exchange foreshadows a massive increase in the amounts of XML data collected, maintained, and queried over th...
