Integer Programming and Combinatorial Optimization
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Integer Programming and Combinatorial Optimization, IPCO 2007, held in Ithaca, NY, USA, in June 2007. Among the topics addressed in the 36 revised full papers are approximation algorithms, algorithmic game theory, computational biology, integer programming, polyhedral combinatorics, scheduling theory and scheduling algorithms, as well as semidefinite programs.
Algorithms and Computation
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 16th International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation, ISAAC 2005, held in Sanya, Hainan, China in December 2005. The 112 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 549 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on computational geometry, computational optimization, graph drawing and graph algorithms, computational complexity, approximation algorithms, internet algorithms, quantum computing and cryptography, data structure, computational biology, experimental algorithm mehodologies and online algorithms, randomized algorithms, parallel and distributed algorithms.
Integer Programming and Combinatorial Optimization
Since its start in 1990, the IPCO conference series (held under the auspices of theMathematicalProgrammingSociety)hasbecomeanimportantforumforthe presentation of recent results in Integer Programming and Combinatorial Op- mization. This volume compiles the papers presented at IPCO XI, the eleventh conference in this series, held June 8–10, 2005, at the Technische Universit ̈ at Berlin. The high interest in this conference series is evident in the large number of submissions. For IPCO XI, 119 extended abstracts of up to 10 pages were submitted. During its meeting on January 29–30, 2005, the Program Committee carefully selected 34 contributions for presentation in non-parallel sessions at...
Algorithmic Game Theory
In recent years game theory has had a substantial impact on computer science, especially on Internet- and e-commerce-related issues. Algorithmic Game Theory, first published in 2007, develops the central ideas and results of this exciting area in a clear and succinct manner. More than 40 of the top researchers in this field have written chapters that go from the foundations to the state of the art. Basic chapters on algorithmic methods for equilibria, mechanism design and combinatorial auctions are followed by chapters on important game theory applications such as incentives and pricing, cost sharing, information markets and cryptography and security. This definitive work will set the tone of research for the next few years and beyond. Students, researchers, and practitioners alike need to learn more about these fascinating theoretical developments and their widespread practical application.
Theoretical Aspects of Distributed Computing in Sensor Networks
Wireless ad hoc sensor networks has recently become a very active research subject. Achieving efficient, fault-tolerant realizations of very large, highly dynamic, complex, unconventional networks is a real challenge for abstract modelling, algorithmic design and analysis, but a solid foundational and theoretical background seems to be lacking. This book presents high-quality contributions by leading experts worldwide on the key algorithmic and complexity-theoretic aspects of wireless sensor networks. The intended audience includes researchers and graduate students working on sensor networks, and the broader areas of wireless networking and distributed computing, as well as practitioners in the relevant application areas. The book can also serve as a text for advanced courses and seminars.
Universal Routing Strategies for Interconnection Networks
This book presents the history and state of the art of universal routing strategies, which can be applied to networks independently of their respective topologies. It opens with a self-contained introduction, accessible also to newcomers. The main original results are new universal network protocols for store-and-forward and wormhole routing with small buffers or without buffers; these results are presented in detail and their potential applications are discussed. The book ends with a summary of open problems and an outlook of future directions in the area of routing theory.
Selfish Routing and the Price of Anarchy
An analysis of the loss in performance caused by selfish, uncoordinated behavior in networks. Most of us prefer to commute by the shortest route available, without taking into account the traffic congestion that we cause for others. Many networks, including computer networks, suffer from some type of this "selfish routing." In Selfish Routing and the Price of Anarchy, Tim Roughgarden studies the loss of social welfare caused by selfish, uncoordinated behavior in networks. He quantifies the price of anarchy—the worst-possible loss of social welfare from selfish routing—and also discusses several methods for improving the price of anarchy with centralized control. Roughgarden begins with a...
Algorithms for Memory Hierarchies
Algorithms that have to process large data sets have to take into account that the cost of memory access depends on where the data is stored. Traditional algorithm design is based on the von Neumann model where accesses to memory have uniform cost. Actual machines increasingly deviate from this model: while waiting for memory access, nowadays, microprocessors can in principle execute 1000 additions of registers; for hard disk access this factor can reach six orders of magnitude. The 16 coherent chapters in this monograph-like tutorial book introduce and survey algorithmic techniques used to achieve high performance on memory hierarchies; emphasis is placed on methods interesting from a theoretical as well as important from a practical point of view.
Euro-Par’97 Parallel Processing
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International Euro-Par Conference, held in Passau, Germany, in August 1997. The 178 revised papers presented were selected from more than 300 submissions on the basis of 1101 reviews. The papers are organized in accordance with the conference workshop structure in tracks on support tools and environments, routing and communication, automatic parallelization, parallel and distributed algorithms, programming languages, programming models and methods, numerical algorithms, parallel architectures, HPC applications, scheduling and load balancing, performance evaluation, instruction-level parallelism, database systems, symbolic computation, real-time systems, and an ESPRIT workshop.
STACS 2005
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 22nd Annual Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science, STACS 2005, held in Stuttgart, Germany in February 2005. The 54 revised full papers presented together with 3 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 217 submissions. A broad variety of topics from theoretical computer science are addressed, in particular complexity theory, algorithmics, computational discrete mathematics, automata theory, combinatorial optimization and approximation, networking and graph theory, computational geometry, grammar systems and formal languages, etc.
