Turing universality of the game of life

P Rendell - Collision-based computing, 2002 - Springer
This chapter describes a Turing machine built from patterns in the Conway's Game of Life
cellular automaton. It outlines the architecture of the construction, the structure of its parts …

Integer sorting in O (n/spl radic/(log log n)) expected time and linear space

Y Han, M Thorup - The 43rd Annual IEEE Symposium on …, 2002 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We present a randomized algorithm sorting n integers in O (n/spl radic/(log log n)) expected
time and linear space. This improves the previous O (n log log n) bound by Anderson et …

On the efficiency of association-rule mining algorithms

V Pudi, JR Haritsa - Pacific-Asia Conference on Knowledge Discovery and …, 2002 - Springer
In this paper, we first focus our attention on the question of how much space remains for
performance improvement over current association rule mining algorithms. Our strategy is to …

Lower bounds for dynamic data structures on algebraic RAMs

Galil - Algorithmica, 2002 - Springer
In a seminal paper of 1989, Fredman and Saks proved lower bounds for some important
data-structure problems in the cell probe model. This model assumes that data structures …
