In the weighted server model each of the servers is assigned a positive weight. The cost associated with moving a server equals the product of the distance traversed and the server weight. A weighted k-server algorithm is called competitive if the competitive ratio depends only upon the number of servers. (i.e., the competitive ratio is independent of the weights associated with the servers and the number of points in the metric space). For the uniform metric space, they give super exponential competitive algorithms for any set of weights. If the servers have one of two possible weights, they give deterministic exponential competitive algorithms and randomized polynomial competitive algorithms. They use the MIN operator for both algorithms. One can model the problem of storage management for RAM and E/sup 2/PROM type memories as a weighted server problem with two weights on the uniform metric space.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":281109,"journal":{"name":"[1993] The 2nd Israel Symposium on Theory and Computing Systems","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123421993","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The authors consider the problem of minimizing the expected time required to obtain an answer from A using strategies which simulate A as follows: run A for a fixed amount of time t/sub 1/, then run A independent for a fixed amount of time t/sub 2/, etc. The simulation stops if A completes its execution during any of the runs. Let S=(t/sub 1/, t/sub 2/,. . .) be a strategy, and let l/sub A/=inf/sub S/T(A,S), where T(A,S) is the expected value of the running time of the simulation of A under strategy S. The authors describe a simple universal strategy S/sup univ/, with the property that, for any algorithm A, T(A,S/sup univ/)=O(l/sub A/log(l/sub A/)). Furthermore, they show that this is the best performance that can be achieved, up to a constant factor, by any universal strategy.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":281109,"journal":{"name":"[1993] The 2nd Israel Symposium on Theory and Computing Systems","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114774852","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They prove that in the case when the polynomials do not contain any squares as monomials, it is always possible to approximate this problem within a factor of /sup p2///sub p-1/ in polynomial time. This follows from the stronger statement that one can, in polynomial time, find an assignment that satisfies at least /sup p-1///sub p2/ of the nontrivial equations. More interestingly, they prove that approximating the maximal number of polynomials with a common root to within a factor of p- in is NP-hard.

The problem is part of the more general problem of bandwidth allocation and management. Intuition suggests that knowledge of future call arrivals can be crucial to the performance of the system. They present on-line call control algorithms that, in some circumstances, are competitive, i.e., perform (up to a constant factor) as well as their off-line, clairvoyant counterparts. They also prove the optimality of some algorithms. The model is that of a line of nodes, and they investigate a variety of cases concerning the value of the calls. The value is gained only if the call terminates successfully, otherwise-if the call is rejected, or prematurely terminated-no value is gained. The performance of the algorithm is then measured by the cumulative value achieved, when given a sequence of calls. The variety of call value criteria captures the most natural cost assignments to network services.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":281109,"journal":{"name":"[1993] The 2nd Israel Symposium on Theory and Computing Systems","volume":"71 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122185470","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The variant considered is the asynchronous shared memory model (atomic registers), and the basic correctness requirement is that upon termination the processes must always have unique IDs. The authors study this problem from several viewpoints. On the positive side, they present the first Las-Vegas protocol that solves the problem. The protocol terminates in (optimal) O(log n) expected time, using O(n) shared memory space, where n is the number of participating processes. On the negative side, they show that there is no Las-Vegas protocol unless n is known precisely, and that no finite-state Las-Vegas protocol can work under schedules that may depend on the history of the shared variable. For the case of arbitrary adversary, they present a Las-Vegas protocol that uses O(n) unbounded registers.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":281109,"journal":{"name":"[1993] The 2nd Israel Symposium on Theory and Computing Systems","volume":"270 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116545718","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Routing the worms in the hot-potato style is a desired form of communication in high-speed optical interconnection networks. The authors develop a simple method for the design of parallel hot-potato worm routing algorithms. The basic approach is to simulate known packet routing algorithms, so that in each step worms are moved around instead of packets. For hot-potato permutation routing of worms of size k the authors have the following results. They get a O(k/sup 2.5/n) algorithm for the n*n mesh, and a O(k/sup 1.5/n) algorithm for the corresponding offline problem. For the 2/sup n/-nodes hypercube they get a O(k/sup 3/n log /sup 2/n) deterministic algorithm, and a O(k/sup 3/n) randomized algorithm. Although the results are given for permutation routing on the mesh and the hypercube, the general method can be applied to many other networks and to more general communication patterns as well. Moreover, once better routing algorithms are found for the underlying network, the worm routing algorithm improves, too.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":281109,"journal":{"name":"[1993] The 2nd Israel Symposium on Theory and Computing Systems","volume":"241 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122919250","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
