Approximation algorithm for minimizing total latency in machine scheduling with deliveries
We study the problem of minimizing total latency in machine scheduling with deliveries, which is defined as follows. There is a set of n jobs to be processed by a single machine a...

Black-Box Randomized Reductions in Algorithmic Mechanism Design
We give the first black-box reduction from arbitrary approximation algorithms to truthful approximation mechanisms for a non-trivial class of multiparameter problems. Specifically,...

Algorithms for Finding Approximate Formations in Games
Many computational problems in game theory, such as finding Nash equilibria, are algorithmically hard to solve. This limitation forces analysts to limit attention to restricted su...

Near-Optimal Hashing Algorithms for Approximate Nearest Neighbor in High Dimensions
We present an algorithm for the c-approximate nearest neighbor problem in a d-dimensional Euclidean space, achieving query time of O(dn1/c2 +o(1) ) and space O(dn + n1+1/c2 +o(1) ...
