Monotone systems of polynomial equations (MSPEs) are systems of fixed-point equations X1 = f1(X1, . . . , Xn), . . . , Xn = fn(X1, . . . , Xn) where each fi is a polynomial with p...

In this paper, we present the first average-case analysis proving an expected polynomial running time for an exact algorithm for the 0/1 knapsack problem. In particular, we prove,...
The use of good random numbers is essential to the integrity of many mission-critical systems. However, when such systems are replicated for Byzantine fault tolerance, a serious i...
1 Challenges of scale have limited the development of event notification systems with strong properties, despite the urgent demand for consistency, reliability, security, and other...

Although event tracing of parallel applications offers highly detailed performance information, tracing on current leading edge systems may lead to unacceptable perturbation of the...
