Source-Tracking Unification
We propose a practical path-based framework for deriving and simplifying source-tracking information for term unification in the empty theory. Such a framework is useful for debugg...

On the average case performance of some greedy approximation algorithms for the uncapacitated facility location problem
In combinatorial optimization, a popular approach to NP-hard problems is the design of approximation algorithms. These algorithms typically run in polynomial time and are guarante...

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...

New degree bounds for polynomial threshold functions
A real multivariate polynomial p(x1, . . . , xn) is said to sign-represent a Boolean function f : {0, 1}n {-1, 1} if the sign of p(x) equals f(x) for all inputs x {0, 1}n. We gi...
