We give a general technique to obtain approximation mechanisms that are truthful in expectation. We show that for packing domains, any α-approximation algorithm that also bounds ...
Despite the surge of interest in data reduction techniques over the past years, no method has been proposed to date that can always achieve approximation quality preferable to that...
Supporting top-k queries over distributed collections of schemaless XML data poses two challenges. While XML supports expressive query languages such as XPath and XQuery, these la...
Abstract--To reduce chip-scale topography variation in Chemical Mechanical Polishing (CMP) process, dummy fill is widely used to improve the layout density uniformity. Previous res...
