We consider online algorithms for the generalized caching problem. Here we are given a cache of size k and pages with arbitrary sizes and fetching costs. Given a request sequence ...
Creating ensembles of random but "realistic" topologies for complex systems is crucial for many tasks such as benchmark generation and algorithm analysis. In general, exp...
Abstract. Software performance prediction methods are typically validated by taking an appropriate software system, performing both performance predictions and performance measurem...
—A simple averaging argument shows that given a randomized algorithm A and a function f such that for every input x, Pr[A(x) = f(x)] ≥ 1−ρ (where the probability is over the...
We introduce a new method to derive lower bounds on randomized and quantum communication complexity. Our method is based on factorization norms, a notion from Banach Space theory....
