A New Randomized Algorithm for Handling Scheduling Conflicts in Grids

open access: yesAdvances in Electrical and Computer Engineering, 2009
As the scale of Grid platforms grows, the idea of a centralized scheduler loses its efficiency, and it is replaced with the scheme of decentralized schedulers.

Probability-boosting technique for combinatorial optimization [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ Computer Science
In many combinatorial optimization problems we want a particular set of k out of n items with some certain properties (or constraints). These properties may involve the k items.

A Randomized Algorithm for CCA

open access: yesCoRR, 2014
We present RandomizedCCA, a randomized algorithm for computing canonical analysis, suitable for large datasets stored either out of core or on a distributed file system. Accurate results can be obtained in as few as two data passes, which is relevant for distributed processing frameworks in which iteration is expensive (e.g., Hadoop). The strategy also

Fast edge colorings with fixed number of colors to minimize imbalance

open access: yesJournal of Graph Algorithms and Applications, 2008
We study the following optimization problem: the input is a multigraph G=(V,E) and an integer parameter g. A feasible solution consists of a (not necessarily proper) coloring of E with colors 1, 2, …, g.

An introduction to randomized algorithms

open access: yesDiscrete Applied Mathematics, 1991
The concept of randomization is known to be an extremely important tool for the design of algorithms. Its use often yields better time or space complexity compared with the best deterministic algorithms we know of for the same problem; moreover resulting randomized algorithms are often very simple to understand and implement.

A randomized maximum-flow algorithm [PDF]

open access: yes30th Annual Symposium on Foundations of Computer Science, 1989
Summary: A randomized algorithm for computing a maximum flow is presented. For an \(n\)-vertex \(m\)-edge network, the running time is \(O(nm + n^2 (\log n)^2)\) with probability at least \(1 - 2^{- \sqrt {nm}}\). The algorithm is always correct, and in the worst case runs in \(O(nm \log n)\) time.

A Monad for Randomized Algorithms

open access: yesElectronic Notes in Theoretical Computer Science, 2016
AbstractIn this paper, we introduce a monad of random choice for domains that does not suffer from the main two drawbacks of the probabilistic powerdomain. It is not known whether any Cartesian closed category of domains is closed under the probabilistic powerdomain, but the Cartesian closed category BCD is closed under this monad of random choice ...

A Randomized Algorithm for 3-SAT [PDF]

open access: yesMathematics in Computer Science, 2010
In this work we propose and analyze a simple randomized algorithm to find a satisfiable assignment for a Boolean formula in conjunctive normal form (CNF) having at most 3 literals in every clause. Given a k-CNF formula phi on n variables, and alpha in{0,1}^n that satisfies phi, a clause of phi is critical if exactly one literal of that clause is ...

On the Use of Biased-Randomized Algorithms for Solving Non-Smooth Optimization Problems

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2019
Soft constraints are quite common in real-life applications. For example, in freight transportation, the fleet size can be enlarged by outsourcing part of the distribution service and some deliveries to customers can be postponed as well; in inventory ...
