The interpretation of conditionals in the scope of a quantifier (as in `No student will succeed if he goofs off') presents a troubling puzzle. Either we are forced to abandon...
Semidefinite programs (SDP) have been used in many recent approximation algorithms. We develop a general primal-dual approach to solve SDPs using a generalization of the well-know...
We give efficient algorithms to sample uniformly, and count approximately, the solutions to a zero-one knapsack problem. The algorithm is based on using dynamic programming to pro...
This paper presents Kato, a tool that implements a novel class of optimizations that are inspired by program slicing for imperative languages but are applicable to analyzable decl...
— Multi-slot resource scheduling in a general two dimensional wireless ad hoc network, is a hard problem with no known polynomial-time solution. Recent optimization theoretic ana...
