We consider the problem of testing functions for the property of being a k-junta (i.e., of depending on at most k variables). Fischer, Kindler, Ron, Safra, and Samorodnitsky (J. Co...

Abstract. We describe fully polynomial time approximation schemes for various multicommodity flow problems in graphs with m edges and n vertices. We present the first approximation...
—Despite the proliferation of work on XML keyword query, it remains open to support keyword query over probabilistic XML data. Compared with traditional keyword search, it is far...
We discuss how phase-transitions may be detected in computationally hard problems in the context of anytime algorithms. Treating the computational time, value and utility functions...
