The leading web search engines have spent a decade building highly specialized ranking functions for English web pages. One of the reasons these ranking functions are effective is...
A common method for constructing a function from a finite set of moments is to solve a constrained minimization problem. The idea is to find, among all functions with the given ...
We propose a new fault localization technique for software bugs in large-scale computing systems. Our technique always collects per-process function call traces of a target system...
Abstract. We consider bicriteria optimization problems and investigate the relationship between two standard approaches to solving them: (i) computing the Pareto curve and (ii) the...
Abstract. We consider the central cryptographic task of secure twoparty computation, where two parties wish to compute some function of their private inputs (each receiving possibl...
