Detecting Locally Stable Predicates Without Modifying Application Messages
In this paper, we give an efficient algorithm to determine whether a locally stable predicate has become true in an underlying computation. Examples of locally stable predicates in...

An Improved LP-based Approximation for Steiner Tree
The Steiner tree problem is one of the most fundamental ÆÈ-hard problems: given a weighted undirected graph and a subset of terminal nodes, find a minimum weight tree spanning ...

(Nominal) Unification by Recursive Descent with Triangular Substitutions
Using HOL4, we mechanise termination and correctness for two unification algorithms, written in a recursive descent style. One computes unifiers for first order terms, the other fo...

Near-optimal network design with selfish agents
We introduce a simple network design game that models how independent selfish agents can build or maintain a large network. In our game every agent has a specific connectivity requ...

Computing universal models under guarded TGDs
A universal model of a database D and a set Σ of integrity constraints is a database that extends D, satisfies Σ, and is most general in the sense that it contains sound and co...
