There has been an explosion of hyperlinked data in many domains, e.g., the biological Web. Expressive query languages and effective ranking techniques are required to convert this...
We present a Kernighan-Lin style local improvement heuristic for genetic algorithms. We analyze the run-time cost of the heuristic. We demonstrate through experiments that the heur...
Energy consumption is a major issue in dynamically reconfigurable systems because of the high power requirements during repeated configurations. Hardware designs employ low power ...
Assuming 3-SAT formulas are hard to refute with high probability, Feige showed approximation hardness results, among others for the max bipartite clique. We extend this result in t...
We study the complexity issues for Walrasian equilibrium in a special case of combinatorial auction, called single-minded auction, in which every participant is interested in only ...
