We describe a recursive algorithm to quickly compute the N nearest neighbors according to a similarity measure in a metric space. The algorithm exploits an intrinsic property of a...
We revisit several maximization problems for geometric networks design under the non-crossing constraint, first studied by Alon, Rajagopalan and Suri (ACM Symposium on Computation...
—Dual descent methods are commonly used to solve network optimization problems because their implementation can be distributed through the network. However, their convergence rat...

We characterize truthful mechanisms in two multi-parameter domains. The first characterization shows that every mechanism for combinatorial auctions with two subadditive bidders t...
Switching activity is one of the most important factors in power dissipation. This paper studies the scheduling problem that minimizes both schedule length and switching activitie...
