The standard dynamic programming solution to finding k-medians on a line with n nodes requires O(kn2 ) time. Dynamic programming speedup techniques, e.g., use of the quadrangle i...
Abstract. We present a first constant performance guarantee for preemptive stochastic scheduling to minimize the sum of weighted completion times. For scheduling jobs with release ...
Abstract. We present a deterministic black box solution for online approximate matching. Given a pattern of length m and a streaming text of length n that arrives one character at ...
We consider online routing algorithms for finding paths between the vertices of plane graphs. Although it has been shown in Bose et al. [4] that there exists no competitive routin...
