We present a probabilistic algorithm that, given a connected graph G (represented by adjacency lists) of average degree d, with edge weights in the set {1, . . . , w}, and given a ...
We apply and extend the priority algorithm framework introduced by Borodin, Nielsen, and Rackoff to define "greedy-like" algorithms for the (uncapacitated) facility locat...
Greedy algorithms are simple, but their relative power is not well understood. The priority framework [5] captures a key notion of “greediness” in the sense that it processes (...
We consider a variation of the classical problem of finding prices which guarantee equilibrium in linear markets consisting of divisible goods and agents with money. Specificall...

Our work is motivated by the problem of managing data on storage devices, typically a set of disks. Such high demand storage servers are used as web servers, or multimedia servers...
