We introduce the poly-streaming model, a generalization of streaming models of computation in which $k$ processors process $k$ data streams containing a total of $N$ items. The algorithm is allowed $O\left(f(k)\cdot M_1\right)$ space, where…
Connected clustering denotes a family of constrained clustering problems in which we are given a distance metric and an undirected connectivity graph $G$ that can be completely unrelated to the metric. The aim is to partition the $n$…
Identifying heavy hitters and estimating the frequencies of flows are fundamental tasks in various network domains. Existing approaches to this challenge can broadly be categorized into two groups, hashing-based and competing-counter-based.…
In many systems, servers do not turn on instantly; instead, a setup time must pass before a server can begin work. These "setup times" can wreak havoc on a system's queueing; this is especially true in modern systems, where servers are…
