We address a hierarchical generalization of the well-known disk paging problem. In the hierarchical cooperative caching problem, a set of n machines residing in an ultrametric spa...

Abstract. This paper proposes a general approach named ExpectationMiniMax (EMM) for clustering analysis without knowing the cluster number. It describes the contrast function of Ex...
We consider the following generalization of bin packing. Each item is associated with a size bounded by 1, as well as a rejection cost, that an algorithm must pay if it chooses not...
Competitive analysis is the established tool for measuring the output quality of algorithms that work in an online environment. Recently, the model of advice complexity has been in...
—Secure Computation (SC) enables secure distributed computation of arbitrary functions of private inputs. It has many useful applications, e.g. benchmarking or auctions. Several ...
