Fredman, Sedgewick, Sleator, and Tarjan proposed the pairing heap as a self-adjusting, streamlined version of the Fibonacci heap. It provably supports all priority queue operation...
Recent research has shown that even modern hard disks have complex failure modes that do not conform to “failstop” operation. Disks exhibit partial failures like block access ...

We describe the operational and denotational semantics of a small imperative language in type theory with inductive and recursive definitions. The operational semantics is given b...
Many non-cooperative settings that could potentially be studied using game theory are characterized by having very large strategy spaces and payoffs that are costly to compute. Be...
We introduce the Multi-Structural Database, a new data framework to support efficient analysis of large, complex data sets. An instance of the model consists of a set of data obje...
