1 We consider the problem of scheduling an unknown sequence of tasks for a single server as the tasks arrive with the goal off maximizing the total weighted value of the tasks serv...
We give a 7.18-approximation algorithm for the minimum latency problem that uses only O(n log n) calls to the prize-collecting Steiner tree (PCST) subroutine of Goemans and Willia...
Ranking functions are instrumental for the success of an information retrieval (search engine) system. However nearly all existing ranking functions are manually designed based on...
