Constructions of k-wise almost independent permutations have been receiving a growing amount of attention in recent years. However, unlike the case of k-wise independent functions...
We give new algorithms for a variety of randomly-generated instances of computational problems using a linearization technique that reduces to solving a system of linear equations...
We settle the 1-pass space complexity of (1 ? )approximating the Lp norm, for real p with 1 p 2, of a length-n vector updated in a length-m stream with updates to its coordinate...
— Energy efficiency is widely understood to be one of the dominant considerations for Wireless Sensor Networks. Based on historical data and technology trends, the receiver ener...
We present a new technique for using samples to estimate join cardinalities. This technique, which we term "end-biased samples," is inspired by recent work in network tr...
