Adaptation to changing environments is a universal feature of life and can involve the organism modifying itself in response to the environment as well as actively modifying the environment to control selection pressures. The latter case…
Log-Structured Merge-trees (LSM-trees) have been widely used in modern NoSQL systems. Due to their out-of-place update design, LSM-trees have introduced memory walls among the memory components of multiple LSM-trees and between the write…
This article focuses on properties and structures of trees with maximum mean subtree order in a given family; such trees are called optimal in the family. Our main goal is to describe the structure of optimal trees in $\mathcal{T}_n$ and…
Small distributed systems are limited by their main memory to generate massively large graphs. Trivial extension to current graph generators to utilize external memory leads to large amount of random I/O hence do not scale with size. In…
The maximum/minimum bisection problems are, given an edge-weighted graph, to find a bipartition of the vertex set into two sets whose sizes differ by at most one, such that the total weight of edges between the two sets is…
We consider the problem of geographically distributed data storage in a network of servers (or nodes) where the nodes are connected to each other via communication links having certain round-trip times (RTTs). Each node serves a specific…
Motivated by an application in computational topology, we consider a novel variant of the problem of efficiently maintaining dynamic rooted trees. This variant requires merging two paths in a single operation. In contrast to the standard…
We study the problem of finding and monitoring fixed-size subgraphs in a continually changing large-scale graph. We present the first approach that (i) performs worst-case optimal computation and communication, (ii) maintains a total memory…
In this paper we study several problems concerning the number of homomorphisms of trees. We give an algorithm for the number of homomorphisms from a tree to any graph by the Transfer-matrix method. By using this algorithm and some…
We consider a variant of the prize collecting Steiner tree problem in which we are given a \emph{directed graph} $D=(V,A)$, a monotone submodular prize function $p:2^V \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^+ \cup \{0\}$, a cost function $c:V \rightarrow…
A problem that arises in drawings of transportation networks is to minimize the number of crossings between different transportation lines. While this can be done efficiently under specific constraints, not all solutions are visually…
Random forests and, more generally, (decision\nobreakdash-)tree ensembles are widely used methods for classification and regression. Recent algorithmic advances allow to compute decision trees that are optimal for various measures such as…
A matrix $M: A \times X \rightarrow \{-1,1\}$ corresponds to the following learning problem: An unknown element $x \in X$ is chosen uniformly at random. A learner tries to learn $x$ from a stream of samples, $(a_1, b_1), (a_2, b_2) \ldots$,…
We present time-space trade-offs for computing the Euclidean minimum spanning tree of a set $S$ of $n$ point-sites in the plane. More precisely, we assume that $S$ resides in a random-access memory that can only be read. The edges of the…
Small devices collecting data for agricultural, environmental, and industrial monitoring enable Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Given their critical role in data collection, there is a need for optimizations to improve on-device data…
Many decisions involve choosing an uncertain course of actions in deep and wide decision trees, as when we plan to visit an exotic country for vacation. In these cases, exhaustive search for the best sequence of actions is not tractable due…
The structure of networks that provide optimal transport properties has been investigated in a variety of contexts. While many different formulations of this problem have been considered, it is recurrently found that optimal networks are…
We consider the classical problem of representing a collection of priority queues under the operations \Findmin{}, \Insert{}, \Decrease{}, \Meld{}, \Delete{}, and \Deletemin{}. In the comparison-based model, if the first four operations are…
Predicting future events, and their order, is important for efficient planning. We propose a neural mechanism to non-destructively translate the current state of memory into the future, so as to construct an ordered set of future…
One of the primary sources of unpredictability in modern multi-core embedded systems is contention over shared memory resources, such as caches, interconnects, and DRAM. Despite significant achievements in the design and analysis of…
