We consider the problem of efficient estimation of first passage time probabilities for a multidimensional random walk with t distributed increments, via simulation. In addition...
: We initiate the study of a new measure of approximation. This measure compares the performance of an approximation algorithm to the random assignment algorithm. This is a useful ...
Address-space randomization (ASR) is a promising solution to defend against memory corruption attacks that have contributed to about three-quarters of USCERT advisories in the pas...
We propose a model of computation where a Turing machine is given random access to an advice string. With random access, an advice string of exponential length becomes meaningful ...
The decades of research in motion planning have resulted in numerous algorithms. Many of the most successful algorithms are randomized and can have widely differing run-times for ...
