—An approximate distance query data structure is a compact representation of a graph, and can be queried to approximate shortest paths between any pair of vertices. Any such data...

This work investigates a geometric approach to proving cell probe lower bounds for data structure problems. We consider the approximate nearest neighbor search problem on the Bool...
On-line decision making often involves query processing over time-varying data which arrives in the form of data streams from distributed locations. In such environments typically...
We present a family of methods for speeding up distributed locks by exploiting the uneven distribution of both temporal and spatial locality of access behaviour of many applicatio...
We provide tight information-theoretic lower bounds for the welfare maximization problem in combinatorial auctions. In this problem, the goal is to partition m items among k bidde...
