In high-stakes engineering applications, optimization algorithms must come with provable worst-case guarantees over a mathematically defined class of problems. Designing for the worst case, however, inevitably sacrifices performance on the…

We study the allocation problem in the Massively Parallel Computation (MPC) model. This problem is a special case of $b$-matching, in which the input is a bipartite graph with capacities greater than $1$ in only one part of the bipartition.…

The One Sided Crossing Minimization (OSCM) problem is an optimization problem in graph drawing that aims to minimize the number of edge crossings in bipartite graph layouts. It has practical applications in areas such as network…

Past research on interactive decision making problems (bandits, reinforcement learning, etc.) mostly focuses on the minimax regret that measures the algorithm's performance on the hardest instance. However, an ideal algorithm should adapt…

We present shared-memory parallel methods for Maximal Clique Enumeration (MCE) from a graph. MCE is a fundamental and well-studied graph analytics task, and is a widely used primitive for identifying dense structures in a graph. Due to its…

We address the problem of clustering a set of points in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with axis-parallel clusters. Previous exact approaches to this problem are mostly based on integer programming formulations and can only solve to optimality instances of…

Significant research effort has been devoted to improving the performance of join processing in the massively parallel computation model, where the goal is to evaluate a query with the minimum possible data transfer between machines.…

We present $O(\log\log n)$-round algorithms in the Massively Parallel Computation (MPC) model, with $\tilde{O}(n)$ memory per machine, that compute a maximal independent set, a $1+\epsilon$ approximation of maximum matching, and a…

This paper proposes an off-line algorithm, called Recurrent Model Predictive Control (RMPC), to solve general nonlinear finite-horizon optimal control problems. Unlike traditional Model Predictive Control (MPC) algorithms, it can make full…

Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods are often used in clustering since they guarantee asymptotically exact expectations in the infinite-time limit. In finite time, though, slow mixing often leads to poor performance. Modern computing…

quest for processing speed potential. In fact, we always get a fraction of the technically available computing power (so-called {\em theoretical peak}), and the gap is likely to go hand-to-hand with the hardware complexity of the target…

The maximum clique problem, a well-known graph-based combinatorial optimization problem, has been addressed through various algorithmic approaches, though systematic analyses of the problem instances remain sparse. This study employs the…

The Massively Parallel Computation (MPC) model is an emerging model which distills core aspects of distributed and parallel computation. It has been developed as a tool to solve (typically graph) problems in systems where the input is…

We study parallel algorithms for the classical balls-into-bins problem, in which $m$ balls acting in parallel as separate agents are placed into $n$ bins. Algorithms operate in synchronous rounds, in each of which balls and bins exchange…

An experimental comparison of two or more optimization algorithms requires the same computational resources to be assigned to each algorithm. When a maximum runtime is set as the stopping criterion, all algorithms need to be executed in the…

Finding the maximum cut of a graph (MAXCUT) is a classic optimization problem that has motivated parallel algorithm development. While approximate algorithms to MAXCUT offer attractive theoretical guarantees and demonstrate compelling…

In this paper we propose a parallel coordinate descent algorithm for solving smooth convex optimization problems with separable constraints that may arise e.g. in distributed model predictive control (MPC) for linear network systems. Our…

The Maximum Clique Problem (MCP) is a foundational NP-hard problem with wide-ranging applications, yet no single algorithm consistently outperforms all others across diverse graph instances. This underscores the critical need for…

This paper proposes an adaptive stochastic Model Predictive Control (MPC) strategy for stable linear time invariant systems in the presence of bounded disturbances. We consider multi-input multi-output systems that can be expressed by a…

This paper explores the performance optimization of out-of-core (OOC) Cholesky factorization on shared-memory systems equipped with multiple GPUs. We employ fine-grained computational tasks to expose concurrency while creating opportunities…
