Finite size effects for the Ising Model coupled to two dimensional random surfaces are studied by exploiting the exact results from the 2-matrix models. The fixed area partition function is numerically calculated with arbitrary precision by…

We analyze numerically three different models exhibiting an absorbing phase transition. We focus on the finite-size scaling as well as the dynamical scaling behavior. An accurate determination of several critical exponents allows to…

In this paper we present a fast scalable heuristic for bin packing that partitions the given problem into identical sub-problems of constant size and solves these constant size sub-problems by considering only a constant number of bin…

In this paper we consider distributed allocation problems with memory constraint limits. Firstly, we propose a tractable relaxation to the problem of optimal symmetric allocations from [1]. The approximated problem is based on the Q-error…

Since a few years there is an increasing interest in minimizing the energy consumption of computing systems. However in a shared computing system, users want to optimize their experienced quality of service, at the price of a high energy…

We present new approximation schemes for bin packing based on the following two approaches: (1) partitioning the given problem into mostly identical sub-problems of constant size and then construct a solution by combining the solutions of…

A very simple example of an algorithmic problem solvable by dynamic programming is to maximize, over sets A in {1,2,...,n}, the objective function |A| - \sum_i \xi_i 1(i \in A,i+1 \in A) for given \xi_i > 0. This problem, with random…

Distributed optimization algorithms are widely used in many industrial machine learning applications. However choosing the appropriate algorithm and cluster size is often difficult for users as the performance and convergence rate of…

Stochastic local search algorithms are frequently used to numerically solve hard combinatorial optimization or decision problems. We give numerical and approximate analytical descriptions of the dynamics of such algorithms applied to random…

We formalize a new paradigm for optimality of algorithms, that generalizes worst-case optimality based only on input-size to problem-dependent parameters including implicit ones. We re-visit some existing sorting algorithms from this…

The finite-size scaling function and the leading corrections for the single species 1D coagulation model $(A + A \rightarrow A)$ and the annihilation model $(A + A \rightarrow \emptyset)$ are calculated. The scaling functions are universal…

Until now, Computer Scientists have concerned themselves with identifying efficient algorithms for solving the general case of some problem -- that is finding one which performs well when the size of the input tends to infinity. In this…

Several low-bandwidth distributable black-box optimization algorithms in the family of finite differences such as Evolution Strategies have recently been shown to perform nearly as well as tailored Reinforcement Learning methods in some…

The long-time behaviour of spin-spin correlators in the slow relaxation of systems undergoing phase-ordering kinetics is studied in geometries of finite size. A phenomenological finite-size scaling ansatz is formulated and tested through…

To study the kinetics of phase separation in active matter systems, we consider models that impose a Vicsek-type self-propulsion rule on otherwise passive particles interacting via the Lennard-Jones potential. Two types of kinetics are of…

We present an algorithmic contribution to improve the efficiency of robust trim-fitting in outlier affected geometric regression problems. The method heavily relies on the quick sort algorithm, and we present two important insights. First,…

As the penetration level of transmission-scale time-intermittent renewable generation resources increases, control of flexible resources will become important to mitigating the fluctuations due to these new renewable resources. Flexible…

Scalable real-time assortment optimization has become essential in e-commerce operations due to the need for personalization and the availability of a large variety of items. While this can be done when there are simplistic assortment…

Our goal is to efficiently solve the dynamic memory allocation problem in a concurrent setting where processes run asynchronously. On $p$ processes, we can support allocation and free for fixed-sized blocks with $O(1)$ worst-case time per…

Finite-size scaling expressions for the current near the continuous phase transition, and for the local density near the first-order transition, are found in the steady state of the one-dimensional fully asymmetric simple-exclusion process…
