A partition of a set of n items is a grouping of the items into k disjoint classes of equal size. Any partition can be modeled as a graph: the items become the vertices of the grap...
Karp and Zhang developed a general randomized parallel algorithm for solving branch and bound problems. They showed that with high probability their algorithm attained optimal spe...
We give an on-line deterministic algorithm for the weighted bipartite matching problem that achieves a competitive ratio of (2n − 1) in any metric space (where n is the number o...

Boolean satisfiability (SAT) is the canonical NP-complete problem that plays an important role in AI and has many practical applications in Computer Science in general. Boolean n...
Abstract. The Parallel Disks Model (PDM) has been proposed to alleviate the I/O bottleneck that arises in the processing of massive data sets. Sorting has been extensively studied ...
