Developing scalable coordination algorithms for multi-agent systems is a hard computational challenge. One useful approach, demonstrated by the Coverage Set Algorithm (CSA), explo...
We introduce a linear algebraic model of computation, the Span Program, and prove several upper and lower bounds on it. These results yield the following applications in complexit...
We consider the problem of preemptively scheduling a set of n jobs on m (identical, uniformly related, or unrelated) parallel machines. The scheduler may reject a subset of the job...

In this paper we review a number of approaches to reducing, or removing, the problem of shift variance in the discrete wavelet transform (DWT). We describe a generalization of the ...
Submodular function maximization is a central problem in combinatorial optimization, generalizing many important problems including Max Cut in directed/undirected graphs and in hy...
