This paper is devoted to sequential decision problems with imprecise probabilities. We study the problem of determining an optimal strategy according to the Hurwicz criterion in de...
Overlapping communication with computation is an important optimization on current cluster architectures; its importance is likely to increase as the doubling of processing power ...

Trees and graphs are widely used to model biological databases. Providing efficient algorithms to support tree-based or graph-based querying is therefore an important issue. In th...
We establish that the algorithmic complexity of the minimum spanning tree problem is equal to its decision-tree complexity. Specifically, we present a deterministic algorithm to fi...
We consider the problem of storing an ordered dictionary data structure over a distributed set of nodes. In contrast to traditional sequential data structures, distributed data st...
