Recent deployments of learned query optimizers use expensive neural networks and ad-hoc search policies. To address these issues, we introduce \textsc{LimeQO}, a framework for offline query optimization leveraging low-rank learning to…
This paper studies a generalized busy-time scheduling model on heterogeneous machines. The input to the model includes a set of jobs and a set of machine types. Each job has a size and a time interval during which it should be processed.…
We consider the range mode problem where given a sequence and a query range in it, we want to find items with maximum frequency in the range. We give time- and space- efficient algorithms for this problem. Our algorithms are efficient for…
We present a randomized algorithm for reconstructing directed rooted trees of $n$ nodes and node degree at most $d$, by asking at most $O(dn\log^2 n)$ path queries. Each path query takes as input an origin node and a target node, and…
We present priority queues in the cache-oblivious external memory model with block size $B$ and main memory size $M$ that support on $N$ elements, operation \textsc{UPDATE} (combination of \textsc{INSERT} and \textsc{DECREASEKEY}) in $O…
The binary heap of Williams (1964) is a simple priority queue characterized by only storing an array containing the elements and the number of elements $n$ - here denoted a strictly implicit priority queue. We introduce two new strictly…
We study the NP-hard problem of approximating a Minimum Routing Cost Spanning Tree in the message passing model with limited bandwidth (CONGEST model). In this problem one tries to find a spanning tree of a graph $G$ over $n$ nodes that…
Quantum computing is a popular topic in computer science, which has recently attracted many studies in various areas such as machine learning and network. However, the topic of quantum data structures seems neglected. There is an open…
The pairing heap is a simple "self-adjusting" implementation of a heap (priority queue). Inserting an item into a pairing heap or decreasing the key of an item takes O(1) time worst-case, as does melding two heaps. But deleting an item of…
Mobile networks are intriguing in recent years due to their practical implications. Previous routing strategies for improving transport efficiency have little attention what order should the packets be forwarded, just simply used…
With the increasing size of datasets and demand for real time response for interactive applications, improving runtime for algorithms with excessive computational requirements has become increasingly important. Many different algorithms…
We seek to perform efficient queries for the predecessor among $n$ values stored in $k$ sorted arrays. Evading the $\Omega(n \log k)$ lower bound from merging $k$ arrays, we support predecessor queries in $O(\log n)$ time after $O(n…
We introduce a very simple queue implementation with the singly linked list. With the help of the rear blank node instead of the usual header node, we avoid additional check steps for the dequeue operation in the traditional implementations…
In this thesis, we study the optimal tradeoff of average delay, average service cost, and average utility for single server queueing models, with and without admission control. The continuous time and discrete time queueing models that we…
This paper presents a general technique for optimally transforming any dynamic data structure that operates on atomic and indivisible keys by constant-time comparisons, into a data structure that handles unbounded-length keys whose…
We present a new approach to the minimum-cost integral flow problem for small values of the flow. It reduces the problem to the tests of simple multi-variate polynomials over a finite field of characteristic two for non-identity with zero.…
As the gap between compute and I/O performance tends to grow, modern High-Performance Computing (HPC) architectures include a new resource type: an intermediate persistent fast memory layer, called burst buffers. This is just one of many…
In this paper, we consider the problems for covering multiple intervals on a line. Given a set $B$ of $m$ line segments (called "barriers") on a horizontal line $L$ and another set $S$ of $n$ horizontal line segments of the same length in…
When analyzing confidential data through a privacy filter, a data scientist often needs to decide which queries will best support their intended analysis. For example, an analyst may wish to study noisy two-way marginals in a dataset…
In a classical scheduling problem, we are given a set of $n$ jobs of unit length along with precedence constraints, and the goal is to find a schedule of these jobs on $m$ identical machines that minimizes the makespan. Using the standard…
