Squarish k-d Trees
We modify the k-d tree on [0, 1]d by always cutting the longest edge instead of rotating through the coordinates. This modification makes the expected time behavior of lowerdimensi...

On Bipartite Drawings and the Linear Arrangement Problem
The bipartite crossing number problem is studied, and a connection between this problem and the linear arrangement problem is established. It is shown that when the arboricity is ...

On a Conjecture by Coffman, Flatto, and Wright on Stochastic Machine Minimization
We investigate a conjecture stated by Coffman, Flatto, and Wright within the context of a stochastic machine minimization problem with a hard deadline. We prove that the conjecture...

Failure Detection and Randomization: A Hybrid Approach to Solve Consensus
We present a consensus algorithm that combines unreliable failure detection and randomization, two well-known techniques for solving consensus in asynchronous systems with crash f...

Primal-Dual RNC Approximation Algorithms for Set Cover and Covering Integer Programs
We build on the classical greedy sequential set cover algorithm, in the spirit of the primal-dual schema, to obtain simple parallel approximation algorithms for the set cover probl...
