Lightweight Data Indexing and Compression in External Memory
In this paper we describe algorithms for computing the BWT and for building (compressed) indexes in external memory. The innovative feature of our algorithms is that they are light...

Clustering for metric and non-metric distance measures
We study a generalization of the k-median problem with respect to an arbitrary dissimilarity measure D. Given a finite set P, our goal is to find a set C of size k such that the s...

Matroids, secretary problems, and online mechanisms
We study a generalization of the classical secretary problem which we call the “matroid secretary problem”. In this problem, the elements of a matroid are presented to an onli...

Performing Replacement in Modem Pools
We examine a policy for managing modem pools that disconnects users only if not enough modems are available for other users to connect. Managing the modem pool then becomes a repl...

Rigorous analyses of fitness-proportional selection for optimizing linear functions
Rigorous runtime analyses of evolutionary algorithms (EAs) mainly investigate algorithms that use elitist selection methods. Two algorithms commonly studied are Randomized Local S...
