The existing literature on optimal auctions focuses on optimizing the expected revenue of the seller, and is appropriate for risk-neutral sellers. In this paper, we identify good ...
Computing a minimum vertex cover in graphs and hypergraphs is a well-studied optimizaton problem. While intractable in general, it is well known that on bipartite graphs, vertex c...
We study the mergeability of data summaries. Informally speaking, mergeability requires that, given two summaries on two data sets, there is a way to merge the two summaries into ...

The Bag of Visual Words (BoV) paradigm has successfully been applied to image content analysis tasks such as image classification and object detection. The basic BoV approach ove...
We consider the use of the earliest-deadline-first (EDF) scheduling algorithm in soft real-time multiprocessor systems. In hard real-time systems, a significant disparity exists...
