Consider a set of players that are interested in collectively evaluating a set of objects. We develop a collaborative scoring protocol in which each player evaluates a subset of t...
In this paper, we generalize the Ski-Rental Problem to the Bahncard Problem which is an online problem of practical relevance for all travelers. The Bahncard is a railway pass of t...
In [6], Gallager introduces a family of codes based on sparse bipartite graphs, which he calls low-density parity-check codes. He suggests a natural decoding algorithm for these c...

We describe the first known algorithm for efficiently maintaining a Binary Space Partition (BSP) for n continuously moving segments in the plane, whose interiors remain disjoint...
