We present an iterative cutting plane method for minimizing staffing costs in a service system subject to satisfying acceptable service level requirements over multiple time perio...
Dot maps--drawings of point sets--are a well known cartographic method to visualize density functions over an area. We study the problem of simplifying a given dot map: given a se...

We consider the problem of computing information theoretic functions such as entropy on a data stream, using sublinear space. Our first result deals with a measure we call the &quo...
Many genomic sequences and, more generally, (multivariate) time series display tremendous variability. However, often it is reasonable to assume that the sequence is actually gene...
—Designing an overlay network for publish/subscribe communication in a system where nodes may subscribe to many different topics of interest is of fundamental importance. For sca...
