Deterministic fluid models of congestion control in high-speed networks
Congestion control algorithms, such as TCP or the closelyrelated additive increase-multiplicative decrease algorithms, are extremely difficult to simulate on a large scale. The re...

On the feasibility of low-rank approximation for personalized PageRank
Personalized PageRank expresses backlink-based page quality around user-selected pages in a similar way to PageRank over the entire Web. Algorithms for computing personalized Page...

Approximate max-integral-flow/min-multicut theorems
We establish several approximate max-integral-flow / minmulticut theorems. While in general this ratio can be very large, we prove strong approximation ratios in the case where th...

Approximating predicates and expressive queries on probabilistic databases
We study complexity and approximation of queries in an expressive query language for probabilistic databases. The language studied supports the compositional use of confidence com...

Approximation algorithms for longest-lived directional multicast communications in WANETs
Several centralized and distributed algorithms have been recently proposed to maximize the multicast lifetime for directional communications in wireless ad-hoc networks. Their per...
