Proactive Algorithms for Job Shop Scheduling with Probabilistic Durations
Most classical scheduling formulations assume a fixed and known duration for each activity. In this paper, we weaken this assumption, requiring instead that each duration can be ...

Algorithmic Theories of Everything
The probability distribution P from which the history of our universe is sampled represents a theory of everything or TOE. We assume P is formally describable. Since most (uncount...

Efficient Algorithms for Approximating Polygonal Chains
We consider the problem of approximating a polygonal chain C by another polygonal chain C whose vertices are constrained to be a subset of the set of vertices of C. The goal is to ...

Survey propagation: an algorithm for satisfiability
: We study the satisfiability of randomly generated formulas formed by M clauses of exactly K literals over N Boolean variables. For a given value of N the problem is known to be m...

A Note on the Expected Time for Finding Maxima by List Algorithms
Maxima in Rd are found incrementally by maintaining a linked list and comparing new elements against the linked list. If the elements are independent and uniformly distributed in t...
