Near-optimal network design with selfish agents
We introduce a simple network design game that models how independent selfish agents can build or maintain a large network. In our game every agent has a specific connectivity requ...

On the fractal behavior of TCP
We propose a natural, mathematically tractable model of TCP which captures both its additive-increase, multiplicative-decrease behavior and its feedback mechanism. Neither a fluid...

Space- and time-efficient deterministic algorithms for biased quantiles over data streams
Skew is prevalent in data streams, and should be taken into account by algorithms that analyze the data. The problem of finding "biased quantiles"-- that is, approximate...
