We propose a method for finding seeds for the local alignment of two nucleotide sequences. Our method uses randomized algorithms to find approximate seeds. We present a dynamic ...
In this paper, we examine the problem of large-volume data dissemination via overlay networks. A natural way to maximize the throughput of an overlay multicast session is to split...
We present the first constant-factor approximation algorithm for network design with multiple commodities and economies of scale. We consider the rent-or-buy problem, a type of m...
—Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) is a popular protocol for routing within an autonomous system (AS) domain. In order to scale for large networks containing hundreds and thousands...

We study the design of truthful mechanisms that do not use payments for the generalized assignment problem (GAP) and its variants. An instance of the GAP consists of a bipartite g...
