Restart Schedules for Ensembles of Problem Instances
The mean running time of a Las Vegas algorithm can often be dramatically reduced by periodically restarting it with a fresh random seed. The optimal restart schedule depends on th...

Scheduling Dynamic Workflows onto Clusters of Clusters using Postponing
In this article, we revisit the problem of scheduling dynamically generated directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) of multi-processor tasks (M-tasks). A DAG is a basic model for expressin...

Provable algorithms for parallel generalized sweep scheduling
We present provably efficient parallel algorithms for sweep scheduling, which is a commonly used technique in Radiation Transport problems, and involves inverting an operator by i...

Undecidability Results for Distributed Probabilistic Systems
Abstract. In the verification of concurrent systems involving probabilities, the aim is to find out the maximum/minimum probability that a given event occurs (examples of such ev...

Distributed fair scheduling in a wireless LAN
—Fairness is an important issue when accessing a shared wireless channel. With fair scheduling, it is possible to allocate bandwidth in proportion to weights of the packet flows ...
