Solving Medium-Density Subset Sum Problems in Expected Polynomial Time
The subset sum problem (SSP) (given n numbers and a target bound B, find a subset of the numbers summing to B), is one of the classical NP-hard problems. The hardness of SSP vari...

The Sample Average Approximation Method for Stochastic Discrete Optimization
In this paper we study a Monte Carlo simulation based approach to stochastic discrete optimization problems. The basic idea of such methods is that a random sample is generated and...

Automated Verification of a Randomized Distributed Consensus Protocol Using Cadence SMV and PRISM
We consider the randomized consensus protocol of Aspnes and Herlihy for achieving agreement among N asynchronous processes that communicate via read/write shared registers. The alg...

Generating Labeled Planar Graphs Uniformly at Random
Abstract. We present an expected polynomial time algorithm to generate a labeled planar graph uniformly at random. To generate the planar graphs, we derive recurrence formulas that...
