Pebbling and Branching Programs Solving the Tree Evaluation Problem
We study restricted computation models related to the tree evaluation problem. The TEP was introduced in earlier work as a simple candidate for the (very) long term goal of separa...

Scheduling in the Face of Uncertain Resource Consumption and Utility
We discuss the problem of scheduling tasks that consume uncertain amounts of a resource with known capacity and where the tasks have uncertain utility. In these circumstances, we w...

Fast Exponential Algorithms for Maximum r-Regular Induced Subgraph Problems
Given a graph G=(V, E) on n vertices, the MAXIMUM r-REGULAR INDUCED SUBGRAPH (M-r-RIS) problems ask for a maximum sized subset of vertices R V such that the induced subgraph on R,...

Improved Bounds for Speed Scaling in Devices Obeying the Cube-Root Rule
Speed scaling is a power management technique that involves dynamically changing the speed of a processor. This gives rise to dualobjective scheduling problems, where the operating...

On the Complexity of Approximating TSP with Neighborhoods and Related Problems
We prove that various geometric covering problems, related to the Travelling Salesman Problem cannot be efficiently approximated to within any constant factor unless P = NP. This ...
