We study the effect of laxity, or slack time, on the online scheduling of broadcasts with deadlines. The laxity of a request is defined to be the ratio between its span (differe...

We consider the fundamental problem of waking up n processors sharing a multiple access channel. We assume the weakest model of synchronization, the locally synchronous model, in ...

Abstract. In this paper we deal with the problem of finding an optimal query execution plan in database systems. We improve the analysis of a polynomial-time approximation algorit...
A technique for generating invariant polynomial inequalities of bounded degree is presented using the abstract interpretation framework. It is based on overapproximating basic semi...
In property testing, we are given oracle access to a function f, and we wish to test if the function satisfies a given property P, or it is ε-far from having that property. In a...
